West Village, New York

This West Village apartment is home to an exhilarating collection of bold and daring paintings, works on paper and sculptures. For this collecting couple, acquiring works by artists with compelling stories and histories is fundamental to their approach. Their collection is a reflection of their personal sensibilities, with an emphasis on artwork that demonstrates profound technical ability along with irreverent invention.

In the living room, Margo Wolowiec’s Immunity (2021) alludes to the COVID-19 pandemic, with its incorporation of reflective Mylar from emergency preparedness kits and woven images of face masks and hand washing sourced from the internet. This artwork is a good representation of the collection as a whole and its engagement with contemporary life as filtered through the prism of artistic intervention.
