Chafik Abboud is not a well-known artist to the general public, but his value is relatively high at auction. However, bidders' attraction to non-figurative painting and the artists of the Nouvelle École de Paris suggests a certain upside potential in terms of the prices his paintings and drawings could fetch at auction. Some of his works are exhibited in museums, notably the Institut du Monde Arabe in France, but private collectors play the greatest role in the conservation of his works.
