Together, they talk about what collecting means to them, share stories of their first art acquisitions, and offer guidance on key considerations for new collectors. They discuss the distinctions between buying from galleries or art fairs, along with practical tips on navigating art fairs with confidence and where to get inspired and discover new talents.
