Toi Art Talk: Collecting – A Lifelong Pursuit

Saturday 31 January, 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

Passionate collectors of design, decorative art and antiques share their stories of obsession, instinct and luck in this special event celebrating the exhibition Towards Modernism.

For many collectors, the work is never finished. As the exhibition Towards Modernism enters its final weeks, this special event brings together collectors and dealers united in this lifelong pursuit.

Speakers will share personal stories from decades of buying, selling, and living with objects – in a conversation spanning collecting memories, shifts in taste and market forces, lucky finds, and the pieces that got away.

Join us for a look behind the scenes of lives spent buying, selling, and living with decorative art and antiques. This event is designed for collectors, design enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the instinct, obsession, and luck that drive lifelong collectors.
