The Art of the Collector

M.J. Higgins, Los Angeles

The Collection of Jim Fittipaldi

Curated by Matt Aston

For the past twenty years, art dealer Jim Fittipaldi, one of the founding members of the downtown art scene, has provided more than just exposure for local artists through his Bedlam Gallery. Opening his private home, he created a gathering place for his creative brethren. Hence, over the years he has amassed a very rich collection. "My intention was more than just to collect artwork, but to give this community a family atmosphere for the exchange of creative dialogue in a mature setting."

On the evening of July 2nd our community has a rare opportunity to view one of the most eclectic and vibrant personal collections in the city.
