Going to Spain today 🇪🇸 for today’s motivation...I vote YES for this balanced interior... the #sergemouille chandelier embraces the ornate architecture with its outstretched arms like a protective #louisebourgeois Spider while anchoring the room and casting light on the main centerpiece--a vibrant expressionistic dot grid painting. 🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣

REVIVAL 🌱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀

REVIVAL 🌱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
not about quarantine weight gain anxiety or planetary self-destruction like her Covid series, but weighted all the same....I've been a long time admirer of painter #AmySillman and this work by her was love at first sight. 💛🧡💛we acquired it based on the sheer joy it gave us...that and the adorable yellow duck waddling under the midnight blue sky😅🦆) Little did we know her career would culminate with a curatorial role at the moma and solo show at Gladstone and I’m sure so much more to come. Amy's work is said to be like a master class in abstract gestural painting breaking down the fundamentals--shape, color and line--all while capturing the world around us as it twists, turns, shifts and re-shapes. keep forging the way Amy! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Appraisal📑 vs CoA 📜 Not one and the same 🚫
Putting on my appraiser hat, here’s a snippet from my interview with @artworkarchive that fielded many commonly asked questions from their collector base
(Thanks AA and @emilietrice for the interview!🙏)

.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
AA: When is an appraisal absolutely necessary? Can I get by with just a certificate of authenticity (COA) signed by the artist and issued by their gallery? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HLK: If you wish to simply resell an artwork on the secondary market, a COA might help prove authenticity. However, it does not serve as an expert opinion of the work's current market value, which is needed for Charitable Donations, Estate Tax Liability, Equitable Distribution and Insurance coverage (the IRS and most insurance companies will only accept USPAP appraisals)___

KEEP CRACKIN’ (that ceiling)🔨💃📣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As we recognize and honor all women today, a little love for former First Lady Jackie O and current FLOTUS #DrJillbiden who also served as Second Lady of the US from 2009 to 2017🇺🇸

🖼 Iconic portrait of former First Lady #JacquelineKennedyOnassis by #AndyWarhol, titled #BlueJackie (1964). HLK Acquisition for private NY collection.
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Throughout his career, Warhol featured a wide range of women from First Ladies and Hollywood celebs to fabulous drag queens and New York underground natives often raising questions of femininity, beauty, and power.
.
Due to the contradictory and complex nature of his work, I hate to admit that I didn’t immediately embrace Warhol...but like so many others I eventually peeled back the many layers of his work to discover his true brilliance... his restraint, coolness, belief in the power of the banal, wry satire...I could go on. Needless to say this work stayed with me long afterward 🧅 ... This acquisition was particularly personal and changed the way I viewed Warhol (and his women!) entirely. While there remains much room for improvement in the depiction of women in society and the glass ceiling has YET to be broken at least the path ahead will be that much easier thanks to the countless heroines and past female martyrs as well as the many selfless and strong mothers, glass breakers, and the living legends amongst us. My hats off to all my fearless sisters!! 👒

Art Pill 💊💊💊 .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Art Pill 💊💊💊
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve always believed in arts ability to heal, uplift and even enlighten. I recently heard that noted art historian, #BernardBerenson would famously faint in front of paintings he deemed worthy😮 But of course, it depends on the work. A piece can also disorient, enrage and disappoint! If you look hard enough you can find the real gems 🔍 💎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This painting gave me so much joy to place not just because I love Hirst’s work, but I happen to love this particular series of pharmaceutical paintings, still relevant perhaps more now than ever. And I especially adore the hot pink color (no surprise for those who know me well 😉)—so vibrant, youthful and never goes unnoticed. 💖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“I often get asked about the spot paintings… they have nothing to do with Richter or Poons or Bridget Riley or Albers or even Op. They’re about the urge or the need to be a painter above and beyond the object of a painting. I’ve often said that they are like sculptures of paintings. I started them as an endless series like a sculptural idea of a painter (myself). A scientific approach to painting in a similar way to the drug companies’ scientific approach to life. Art doesn’t purport to have all the answers; the drug companies do. Hence the title of the series, The Pharmaceutical Paintings, and the individual titles of the paintings themselves… Art is like medicine – it can heal. 🩹Yet I’ve always been amazed at how many people believe in medicine but don’t believe in art, without questioning either.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

TREASURE TROVE💎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’

TREASURE TROVE💎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve been following this visionary collector couple, #BernardLumpkin and #CarmineBoccuzzi and their impeccably curated art collection for quite some time. I can really appreciate the conversations around race and identity that it inspires as a biracial, Jewish women myself. Their keen focus on traditionally underrepresented and under-recognized artists and early vision to champion Black American artists is remarkable and sets a wonderful example for others 🎯 This collection is one for the ages and will hopefully continue to educate and empower others along this journey of awakening for generations to come.🏆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

(GHADA) LOVE IT 😉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s keep the love going even if Valentine’s Day has already passed shall we?...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We acquired this Ghada Amer (Black Kiss) painting for a client a year after it was made. Online dating fatigue is real for singles and people are yearning for IRL experiences and the physical touch more than ever. 🫂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

"I liked the idea of representing women through the medium of thread because it is so identified with femininity," 🧵she said. Her 2008 mid-career survey at the Brooklyn Museum explored the mysteries of love, war, and violence.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
