Individuals from Venice Beach to Rome share the reasons they took the plunge into art collecting and their tips on how to get into the pool.
In assembling our annual roll call, we found ourselves pleasantly surprised by the abundance of new faces and advocates for the arts. Ambitious in their intentions and deep-pocketed in resources, together the class of 2021 embody everything that works about the current patronage system, while leaving behind its more insidious malpractices.
A new vanguard of entrepreneurs, actors, designers and executives is getting involved in the arts and redefining what a contemporary patron looks like, from multiple vantage points. For our third annual young collectors list, we showcase the breadth of this new generation’s engagement, and ask for their best advice on how we can join them.
Art collections are as varied as the individuals that curate them—in content, origin and motivation. For our second annual selection of young collectors, we focus on a diverse group that shares a common thread: the nurturing of conversations that tie art to the larger context of the world.
Five young collectors prove that stories mean more than trophies.
