Victoria Beckham, a designer, entrepreneur, and art collector, has partnered with Sotheby’s once more. This collaboration will highlight a carefully curated selection of contemporary artworks at her Mayfair boutique in London prior to their auction in both London and New York.
This partnership continues Beckham’s 2018 collaboration with the auction house centered on Old Masters’ portraits. She now turns her focus to contemporary art, showcasing some of her top choices like Yoshitomo Nara, George Condo, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Joan Mitchell, Gerhard Richter, Yves Klein, and Richard Prince. The artworks are exhibited throughout her three-story Georgian townhouse boutique, offering visitors an immersive experience.
Central to the curation are artworks that grab attention through vivid colours, luxurious textures, and impressive scale. Highlighted pieces feature Nara’s intriguing “Cosmic Eyes (in the Milky Lake),
Beckham’s love for collecting started when she visited Elton John’s house in Nice, France, where she became enchanted by a painting by Julian Schnabel. This experience prompted her to make her first art purchase—a work from Schnabel’s Sonanbul series—which eventually influenced the colour palette for her Fall 2024 collection.
“For David and I, collecting is about more than just investing or acquiring beautiful objects,” Beckham shared in a statement. “It’s about finding pieces that bring us joy. The more I delve into art history and my journey as a collector, the more captivated I am by it.”
Art and fashion lovers can explore the exhibition at the Victoria Beckham store in London until February 10, 2025.
