Social Media & Marketing InternTwitter / Instagram: BrittanyRaeann Who is your favorite artist? It’s a toss up between Leonardo da Vinci and Frida Kahlo. What is your favorite art space? I’m cliche… The Met. So much history and amazing works are contained within those walls. Every time I go I see something new. What works are on your Artspace wish list? Oh goodness, a lot — and more are added daily. Rose Tinted Lens by Jack Hardwicke, Chelsea Hotel (British Glamour) by Pamela Hanson, For the Love of God by Damien Hirst, Nike by Tobias Keene,It’s All Derivative: Marilyn by Bill Claps, Only One YOU by Shantell Martin, From Glamour Girls by Patrick McMullan, New York City. Flat Iron Building. 1969 by Elliott Erwitt, Untitled, from the series Darkroom 2005-2006 by Michel Campeau… really I could go on forever. When were you first exposed to art / the art world? Art has always been a part of my life from as early as I can remember. I have been in art classes since grade school, and since then my love and knowledge of art has only continued to grow. Do you create art? Yes. Mostly mixed media works. I love playing with different combinations of mediums and just letting my creativity flow. I shut my brain off when I work on a piece, and just let it happen. What’s one item you can’t live without? My iPhone. I’m a total Apple snob, and it contains practically my entire life on it - the Bible, music, phone numbers, pictures… everything. It’s how I communicate. What’s your favorite food to snack on while in the office? We have these dark chocolate covered pretzels that I can’t seem to get enough of. They are heavenly. If you could steal a work from any institution, what would you steal? Virgin of the Rocks by Leonardo da Vinci at the Louvre. Think I could get away with it?

It’s a toss up between Leonardo da Vinci and Frida Kahlo.

Social Media & Marketing InternTwitter / Instagram: @ephtys Who is your favorite artist? Alphonse Mucha - his drawings are absolutely stunning! What is your favorite art space? City streets…that’s where I usually find the most interesting stuff. And then I obviously instagram it… What artworks are on your Artspace wish list? Beach (6) by Serge Hamad,  Pink Blossoms by Sally Gall, C’mon Get Happy by Deborah Kass, Piano Workshop Wall by Harold Ross, Nuevo Eden 4199 by Andrea Juan, Give me a B, Give me an A…& etc by John Baldessari, Film Still #5 (The Greatness) by Yi Zhou, anything by Stuart Franklin, any landscape photo by Dan Agam and (my personal favorite and closest to my heart) Italy. Rome. 1964 by Bruno Barbey. When were you first exposed to art/ the art world? I’ve always been exposed to art ever since I was born. My grandparents and parents collect art and objects from around the world (growing up in a diplomatic family has its perks), my uncle is an artist and I’ve always been “dragged” to museums as a child.  Do you create art? I studied Fine Arts in Rome before moving to New York City. I had a great passion for portraiture, hyperrealism and etching, but soon realized that being an artist was not my future and so turned to Visual Arts Administration. I don’t regret it, but I do miss painting.  What’s one item you can’t live without? As cliche’ as it may sound…my iPhone. I do everything with it: plan, film, communicate, take pictures, listen to music, relax and learn. I just wish it had a laundry-washing/coffee-making option…. What’s your favorite food to snack on while in the office? My favorite “snack” is my mid-day espresso break at Eataly. If you could steal a work from any institution, what would you steal? This is funny because while I was interning at Christie’s Auction House I once found myself in front of an original work by my favorite artist Alphonse Mucha in their photography lab. I was very close to stealing it…very close. #badintern
