Description

'If you want to buy something that appreciates, buy stocks and shares. Buy art because you want to live with it. Your appreciation is its appreciation.' - Ronan Sulich

This philosophy lies at the heart of Collecting: Living with Art. A visual feast and tribute to the personal journey of acquiring and curating art, it celebrates the enriching endeavour of bringing art into the home. Artists, curators, architects, designers, gallerists and philanthropists open their doors, offering fascinating insights and practical advice on their distinctive approach to integrating art into daily life.

The collectors' stories demonstrate how art can transform a space and turn it into a sanctuary of self-expression. Featuring a diverse mix of bold abstract works, contemporary photography, sculpture and mid-century masterpieces, Collecting is a powerful testament to the beauty and individuality of creating a home filled with meaning and inspiration.
