Saturday Collector Home Profile

we open the doors to the homes and offices of our collectors—spaces where art lives, works, and tells a story.

We showcase carefully curated works sold by Chelsea Art Group, revealing how our clients’ taste and lifestyle transform everyday environments into personal art sanctuaries.

This week, we are excited to explore an intriguing new collection, highlighting the unique artworks and the fascinating pieces they have recently acquired.

We first connected with our client when he discovered us online, and he decided to add this fantastic Robert Stackhouse drawing to his collection!

The reframing in a brushed aluminum frame draws upon references to industrial buildings found in Stackhouse’s artwork, thereby reinforcing the architectural subject depicted in the drawing. It looks fabulous!!!!

Jim Dine abstractions present vibrant, colorful adventures bursting with vivid colors, rich textures, and dynamic dimensions, and are a fantastic departure from his established lanquage.

Throughout his artistic journey, Jim has passionately embraced printmaking, diving into the craft because he truly loves it. Fearless in his experimentation, he plays with composition and techniques to create remarkable pieces that resonate with his unique artistic touch.

You may recall this Kiki Smith from the client profile we sent out last week. This client also wisely chose to obtain a copy from the limited edition produced for the Whitney Museum.

Michael Mazur, was an acclaimed artist from Boston, he captivated viewers with his deeply intimate and psychologically charged works on paper. His unparalleled skill in printmaking, particularly in mezzotint and monotype, set him apart in the art world. With decades of experience teaching at Harvard, he has profoundly shaped a generation of artists and collaborated with distinguished writers and poets, including Sylvia Plath, whose iconic The Bell Jar he illustrated.

One of his standout pieces features a monumental tree—gnarled and skeletal—capturing exactly that presence we seek to understand, moving beyond mere scenery. Created during or after his time in Texas, this work reflects Mazur’s ability to distill nature to its psychological essence.

This tree acts as a portrait—solitary, upright, and quietly defiant. It epitomizes classic Mazur: a simple yet powerful image packed with emotional depth. The Texas Tree is particularly highly sought after, especially in exceptional print quality and untouched condition like this one.

Esteemed collections, including MoMA, the Met, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the MFA Boston, affirm his status as a true artist for connoisseurs—one who demands respect over market hype.
