A LIVED-IN COZY ART MUSEUM
New York Magazine has a visual tour of Michael and Susan Hort’s Tribeca home, a rotating display from the 5000-piece collection they have put together over the past 37 years. The townhouse “is alive with art. It’s simply everywhere: on every wall, up and down the stairs, on ­every table (some of which were made by artists too), and, in the case of one Sarah Sze, in a closet. Some of it you can sit on; there’s a 1993 Franz West sofa by the fireplace and a Nari Ward piece, Tired Seats, from the same year. It has to be the most cozily lived-in all-star ­contemporary-art museum in the world.”
