Modern art is the new intellectual currency, drawing the attention of media moguls, hedge-fund managers, and Hollywood darlings, granting them entry into an exclusive global community. Renowned art dealers Philippe Ségalot and Franck Giraud have curated The Impossible Collection of Art, an unparalleled modern art collection where anything is possible. These 100 extraordinary artworks, introduced by Joachim Pissarro, offer a unique perspective on 20th-century artistic achievements, whether hidden in a museum's vault or up for auction. In the 2nd edition, Ségalot and Giraud have updated with eleven new works, inspiring endless discussions and inviting art enthusiasts to imagine their own dream Impossible Collection.

Philippe Ségalot joined Christie’s in New York in 1996 as contemporary art specialist before becoming the company’s international head of contemporary art. Franck Giraud joined Christie’s in New York as impressionist and modern art specialist in 1988 and became the international head of impressionist and modern art at Christie’s in 1996. The two formed the New York– and Paris-based art consultancy firm Giraud.Pissarro.Ségalot with partner Lionel Pissarro in 2001. After Giraud retired in 2012, the company became Ségalot LP and is focused on twentieth- and twenty-first-century art under the direction of Philippe Ségalot.
