Nancy Gamboa is an independent art advisor based in Los Angeles. Her boutique advisory provides services focused on establishing and expanding collections that value sustained cultural, critical and market significance. 

Since 2012, Gamboa has worked intimately with private collections, guiding their individual  acquisitions and relating these to a larger vision. Gamboa’s specialized experience covers  emerging, mid-career and blue chip contemporary art, also extending to ancient works.  These works have taken the form of site specific sculpture, complex installations,  time-based media works, as well as  the traditional forms of painting, drawing, and sculpture. Being situated in Los Angeles during a time of significant expansion in the city’s art industry, Gamboa possesses a refined knowledge of local artists, galleries and institutions. Her regional perspective paired with a global outlook and consistent travel for art fairs, major exhibitions and studio visits has established Gamboa’s global presence. In addition to working closely with galleries and artists in placing works, Gamboa has extensive experience in sourcing artworks, sellers and buyers via her sustained secondary market dealing. 

Gamboa is experienced in running ambitious collections and the quality of her clients, as well as their holdings, has brought her into frequent contact with museums and non-profit institutions, overseeing loans, philanthropic efforts and gifts. Philanthropic projects include working closely with emerging and blue chip artists to produce limited edition prints for local charitable organizations. Gamboa’s clients include senior executives in global finance, investment banking, media, entertainment and real estate. Gamboa's clients are located across the United States, Canada, the UK, and Asia.

Gamboa’s educational grounding in Political science, with an emphasis in Theory and Aesthetics (UCLA), allows Gamboa an intellectual literacy across a wide range of cultural objects and social forces.
