Marianne Boesky’s Home
Ah, it’s Friday. Nothing like finishing off the week with some good old apartment envy. The New York Times gave us a sneak peak of art dealer – the necessary evil of the fine arts – Marianne Boesky’s apartment (which is oh so conveniently located an elevator ride away from her Manhattan gallery). Now, normally I would be oohing and ahhhing but to tell you the truth I was a bit disappointed. I’m really at loss for words here but the obvious effort to replace conventional furniture with “art objects” isn’t really working for me. I guess I prefer my art in a gallery of museum…although one could argue that her home is a gallery.
