I feel being chosen to participate in the a museum collection for their fundraising is an excellent thing for a few reasons. It elevates ones work because it is validating to be curated by the institution.
For me I love this because my art gains the power of being transformed from a simple tool of messaging into a commodity which I can use to support the arts.
Art collecting has a richer level when people collect from museum art auctions. It is a way to instantly gain access to top curated regional artist, find wonderful art and have the deeper satisfaction of knowing your investment directly impacts the the survival of a healthy art community. We all know communities are better when the arts flourish and are evident. I am happy to able to feed into the flourish.
