Pre The Big Frieze
9 October 2012
The month of September ends with an exciting kick! Our Toby Ziegler works are proudly displayed in Kiasma what more could a collector hope for?
Then back home it was Matthew Darbyshire’s big day, his first big show in England. We were fortunate enough to collaborate with Tramway and thanks to Ellen and Lizzie’s great team work we managed to put together the most amazing exhibition. We started our celebrations of our fifth year and it was a wonderful festive feeling. Artist such as Richard Sides showing in Invites, Toby Ziegler and our advisors James Lingwood and Thomas Dane also managed to be with us.
My wonderful talented writer friend Amanda Eliasch dropped by to give her support, sitting between our invite artists Yelena Popova and Hannah Perry.

A very proud Matthew Darbyshire with Ash L’Ange and Nicky Verber from Herald St.
The show is a big success, a mundane landscape of Mockintosh architecture engulfing a small visual palate of home comforts and British DIY familiarity.
A maze of blinding streets.
Brightly lit in a hyper realistic way. Maitreyi talking to Thomas Klassnik under the lamp light.
Matthew talking to real, real estate people Barry and Simone Angel who were fascinated by the whole process of T Rooms.
The men were out in force to support Matthew, Nicolas Deshayes and George Henry Longley.
Bloombergs first union with the an institute. Jemma Reid shakes hands with Matt Williams curator of the ICA.
Hannah Sawtell’s installation is stunning.
We dropped by to Pace, where our eyes devoured Sugimoto and Rothko side by side.
Heading up the big stairs at the ICA we passed by the endearing and super charged Bjarne Melgaard show.
Our wonderful Louisa Buck was promoting her new wonderful book called Commissioning Contemporary Art. Louisa had discovered that we are the only collectors in the world who are commissioning young emerging artists who have not been tested on the race track.
At David Zwirner's new amazing space I met handsome Thomas Ruff for the first time.
The highlight was David Zwirner and all the artists posing for me, this certainly was a historical moment.
Phillips de Pury hosted a splendid event for wonderful Catherine Petitgas new book “Contemporary Art Brazil”. A feast of colour and frills. I do love Brazil!
