Today has been a tougher day than I anticipated, with the intense grief and feeling of loss barely dulled from a year ago. I am so grateful for the gift of Mario’s mentorship and friendship. He was loyal and true (even if absolutely maddening). One thing he feared was being forgotten, but whether as a design genius who defined an era or as a friend who never stopped calling (or emailing terrible jokes), he is unforgettable. I miss him so so much.
While his papas @reggiedarling amd @bruceshostak are savoring Sachertorte in Vienna, Basil 🌿 is working hard with me at one of @mariobuatta ‘s five storage units. Note the plastic covering on the chair - acceptable in a warehouse setting, but, as you know, Mario otherwise recommended dust as a protective slipcover. 🌿 #mariobuatta #pugsofinstagram
How do we collect today? 🏺Please join me on Saturday November 2 at 1pm for a riveting panel discussion on “The New Connoisseurs” and their impact on the art market, interior decoration, and the future of antiques with a STELLAR panel of design experts, including @calebadesign of @drake_anderson, @hadleykeller of @housebeautiful, fashion designer extraordinaire @adamlippes and my fellow moderator, the elegant and erudite @michaeldiazgriffith at the AADLA Fine Art & Antique Show at Wallace Hall.🏺Champagne brunch to precede! Many many thanks to @tugrice for the invitation. . With the public's interest in antiques on the rise once again, eclectic interiors are filling the pages of glossy magazines, design websites, and … Instagram! For the first time in a generation, it is universally cool to be a collector––whether of sneakers, ceramics, vintage and archival fashion, contemporary art, or antiques. . While this new wave of collecting recalls past eras, it is distinctive in its 21st-century focus on individual taste and style. The ABCs of connoisseurship are as important as ever, but today's collectors want more than a guidebook knowledge of "good, better, best"––they want to cultivate a distinctive "eye" and form collections that are uniquely their own.
Edmund de Waal’s porcelain and steel installations at @frickcollection are riveting - do not miss. With each work, de Waal extracts the essence of and dialogues with a room or a work of art or even Frick himself. A must is listening to de Waal passionately describe each piece - found on the Frick website. Above is “that pause of space”, a garniture of sorts riffing off the Ingres portrait and Reisener console. My companion @_ross_alexander_ and I had the most perfect afternoon. If you have’t read @edmunddewaal ‘s Hare with Amber Eyes, you must and you’re welcome. #edmunddewaal #electiveaffinities #frick
R.I.P.? Susan Gutfreund’s Winter Garden is one of the most spectacularly beautiful rooms of today. It is emotive, atmospheric and transporting - worthy of a Visconti set. It was a driving force that led me to write the Henri Samuel book and the Gutfreund-Samuel collaboration was a match made in heaven. Now that the apartment is sold, will the new owner completely dismantle it or at least keep the architectural shell of the room? Time will tell but regardless I am so grateful to Mrs. Gutfreund for sharing this room with us and letting us savor the photographs forever on. #823fifth #susangutfreund #henrisamuel
It’s official! Mark your calendars (and start eating ramen) for the Mario Mega Sale, “Mario Buatta: Prince of Interiors” at @sothebys January 23 and 24. The collection features dog paintings and tulip cups of course, but also pieces that belonged to those he admired and studied, including Nancy Lancaster, Sister Parish, Michael Taylor, Babe Paley, Betsey Whitney, Evangeline Bruce, Pamela Harriman, Eleanor Brown, and more. It will be epic! #mariobuatta #princeofinteriors #sothebys
This weekend... #hugoeerdmans
Thank you to all who made my birthday so full of love and joy! 🌈 I am excited for this new year and even if my complexion is a little less dewy than when I was 21, the great thing about getting older is knowing and embracing who one is - and not worrying (so much) about what others think. #44 #unicornsandrainbows #evolution #microdermabrasion #vortex
