“I collect art that I don’t understand” – Christian Boros

by Johnny on June 24, 2008

Sammlung Boros is a WWII bomb shelter in Berlin that was converted into a space for the private art collection of Christian Boros. Recently in 2008 the space was opened for public viewing but you have to make a reservation here (Saturdays only). I love that quote by the collector.

Yes, I agree. Art can simply be to love. “Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand, as if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to love.”
