badge TOP RATED
The collection of Mark Isaacson and Greg Nacozy captures a particular 1980s downtown New York aesthetic and lifestyle; as a founding member of the legendary Fifty/50 Gallery, Isaacson was a prominent collector of midcentury furniture, Italian art glass, 20th century photography, and African art. His partner, Greg Nacozy, has cared for this collection since Isaacson's death in 1993. Their eye for sensual formalism and the exuberance of life lived through art and objects is evident in this personal and thoughtful collection.
