Description
For one year, Bob Nickas put his money where his eyes are: he decided to become a collector. He tracked the changes in his relation to art as he bought one work per month from an artist he had never written about or exhibited before.
This diary chronicles his experiences, revealing how the commitment of buying art affects his perception of its value. Nickas reflects on the tension between his willingness to spend money and the worthiness of the art itself.
Through this project, Nickas has gained a new perspective on art, one that is both personal and financial. His year as a collector offers a unique insight into the world of contemporary art.
