It can be hard to get your hands on an acquisition from the artist you’ve long been coveting—tracking their shows, talking to their dealer, anxiously bidding at auction. We’re going to help you cut the line.
Today, we’re happy to announce a new partnership with Samsung: a “CULTURED Collection” available exclusively in the Samsung Art Store. Beginning in October, owners of Samsung’s The Frame and QLED TVs, which transform into a hanging artwork while in art mode, can choose to display 60 pieces by Adam Pendleton, Dominique Fung, Oscar yi Hou, and more.
“At CULTURED, we believe art should be available beyond the walls of museums and galleries,” says Editor-in-Chief Sarah Harrelson. “By partnering with the Samsung Art Store, we’re able to further amplify the visions of today’s most influential artists to a global audience by bringing art into homes in a way that’s accessible for all.”
The partnership will mark a significant step forward for Samsung’s contemporary program, and follows its collaborations with the likes of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Keith Haring Foundation, and Art Basel. For a preview of the works available, Samsung and CULTURED are constructing their own temporary gallery in New York next month.
The Samsung Art Store Gallery will be open to the public Oct. 9 – 10 at 545 W 23rd St in New York, where visitors can enjoy refreshments while taking in everything from Andrea Marie Breiling’s hazy visions to Emma Webster’s twisted naturescapes in sparkling resolution. These works are the first round in what will be a living collection curated between Samsung and CULTURED.
“The ‘CULTURED Collection’ on the Samsung Art Store will provide unprecedented access to world-class contemporary art,” says Sang Kim, Executive Vice President and Head of North America Services Business, Samsung Electronics. “We are bringing the CULTURED Collection to our Art Store Gallery in New York City and making it accessible to millions of Samsung owners worldwide. We’ve long honored the great masters of the past, and with CULTURED, we will offer viewers not just the artistic legends of the past, but those of the future as well.”
