2. The art of collecting has transformed from what
it was just a few years ago. Formality has given way
to flexibility, and today, we live amongst our
collections. The severity of yesterday has been
ingeniously replaced by a playful, and lighthearted
fusion of genres.
It is no longer just about preservation, or
amassing a collection, but incorporating this interest
into one’s daily life. Antiques and ‘objets trouvés’
form part of our everyday existence, and embellish
the joys of life, and of living. Asian art, vintage design,
and Louis XV furniture create remarkable interiors;
there is pleasure in owning and driving a classic
car, and delight in selecting a vintage watch to suit
the occasion.
For the cultural and the curious, Auctionata
shows that originality and history are not the only
things to be considered by the new collector. Rather,
that remarkable beauty can be found in the union
of the past and present.
