Welcome to issue #33!

If you’re an art lover like me, perhaps you’re a collector too! I’ve enjoyed slowly adding to my own personal collection of art over the years as my career developed and I was able to invest in pieces I love from galleries or directly from other artists. Each work holds a special meaning, serves as a reminder of a memory or simply brings me joy when I see it. 

These feelings inspired the theme for this issue, which focuses on stories about collecting. You’ll hear from gallerists who speak about how they’ve grown their businesses during uncertain times by honing in on their respective missions and making genuine connections with clients. The interviews in this issue also share what motivates contemporary collectors, as well as provide tips for those new to buying art. 

Our curated section was selected by the incredibly talented Dina Brodsky. We were excited to see her picks and what drew her eye as both a curator and accomplished artist. Before you get to the work she found most inspiring, don’t miss her exclusive interview to learn how she has built her multifaceted career painting miniatures, teaching workshops and so much more. 

Our writers take you on a deep dive into the world of art collecting, whether you are seasoned or just starting. Enjoy exclusive features with Sarah Miller Gelber, Marine Tanguy, Dina Brodsky, BUTTER, Jack Trodd, Cortney Lederer of CNL Projects and Superfine Art Fair.
