Constantin Brancusi’s ‘Danaïde’ from the Private Collection of Si Newhouse | Christie's

Описание: Few collectors ever saw what Si Newhouse saw — and fewer still lived with it.​

As co-owner of the Conde Nast media empire, Newhouse shaped cultural taste at the highest level. As a collector, he pursued works that marked decisive shifts in art history.​

Constantin Brancusi’s ‘Danaïde’, from 1913, stands among them — a rare and defining work that signals the ambition and depth of his collection. When Newhouse acquired it at Christie's in 2002, the masterpiece not only set a record for Brancusi, but the highest price ever achieved for a sculpture at the time of the sale.​

These are not simply masterpieces but turning points: works that changed the course of modern art and remained, for decades, in one of its most private collections.​

This 20th and 21st Century Art season, a new chapter reveals the inner core of Si Newhouse’s incomparable vision.​
