Review

“Tantalizingly voyeuristic.”

(W magazine)

“While salivating over the whitewashed walls and spacious home offices of some of the most successful artists working today is certainly enjoyable, we think the most fascinating part of the experience is seeing their coveted art collections, and making connections between artists.”

(Artnet)

A voyeuristic fantasy with beautiful photographs providing a glimpse into the lives of artists and how they collect and live with art. What makes this great however is the scholarly insight of the interviews with each artist. So much to see and learn and take in – a great addition to any library.

This book is exquisite, the masterful photographs are inspiring. I got lost in the images as they stir the imagination. The interiors of the artists begin to pick the lock at the question, "What is their inspiration?"

Lucillius said "Show me what you eat, and I will show you who you are."

Artists Living With Art says "Show me where you live and I will show you who you ART".

I pre ordered several copies and now have completed the bulk of my holiday shopping .

I just got my copy of this book and have read it cover to cover. It is not only gorgeous (the main reason I love it), but insightful, thought provoking, and really let’s you into an artists mind. I have already ordered gifts for friends and know I will figure out others to give this to as well. Bravo!!!!
