Collections with Purpose

While Art has metamorphosed into an industry of fairs, auctions, galleries and museums, we take a moment to step off the hamster wheel and refocus on the work of art through the eyes of collectors with purpose.  More than ever, the philosophy and psychology of behind art collections are of intriguing interest.  How do you cultivate the collection?  How does the connection between the work and the collector inform a pathway to collecting? Are there new considerations in collecting today that are different than they were from the inception of the collection? How have the thematics of the type of collecting evolved over time?  And what is the best way of giving access to the art collection?
