Thursday Evening Salon at Gallery 525 with art advisor and collector Anca Colbert
“Why Do People Collect Art?” A Closer Look at the Film Poster
Thursday, December 3, 2015 5:00 to 7:00pm
Join us for an evening with art advisor, columnist, curator and collector Anca Colbert exploring what motivates people to collect art.
“Everybody enjoys being surrounded by beauty and art. You don’t have to be Peggy Guggenheim or Eli Broad, to travel the world, to attend auctions and art fairs in London or New York, or to have considerable disposable income to satisfy the search and the pleasure.”
Ms. Colbert will review elements of this passion and take a closer look at what drives the process from its historical developments to its current trends; the conversation will also touch on various motivations that drive people to collect art. On hand will be a small selection from Anca Colbert’s personal film poster collection. Bring your curiosity, stories and adventures in art collecting to share at this interesting and fun gathering.
