American collectors Simona and Jerome Chazen share a rare conviction that one should never differentiate between fine and applied arts. “We believe painting, sculpture and craft are born from the same creative spirit – and are happiest when they live with one another.”
To this end for almost 40 years they have championed the decorative arts, integrating them into their homes so that glass by Dale Chihuly and William Morris and ceramic sculptures from Viola Frey and Anthony Caro sit beside paintings by David Hockney, Andy Warhol, Robert Motherwell and Gerhard Richter.
