I am VERY excited to be working with @lphaCentauriKid on a new collecting initiative dedicated to artists within our industry who might not get the attention they deserve. At the heart of it is something I deeply admire: ACK’s desire to give back by using collecting as a way to meaningfully support artists and direct attention toward exceptional work that may not yet be receiving the recognition it deserves. I’ll be looking across a range of disciplines, from photography and generative art, to other digital-native practices and beyond, with the aim of identifying and acquiring exceptional examples of artists’ work. It’s an incredibly generous gesture, and one rooted in the idea that collecting can be more than acquisition. It is a form of patronage, encouragement, and belief in someone’s practice. Very excited to see where this takes us.
