Description

Art can illuminate and enrich our lives in many ways. It can excite, provoke, intrigue, and inspire. Home Sweet Home demonstrates some of the possibilities of discovering art by transforming the physical space of a home and inspiring the imagination on a daily basis. While the title relates to the domestic nature of the Peter Fay's collection, it also takes us into the psychological and expressive realms of what "art" and "home" might mean. What distinguishes Fay as a collector is his inveterate risk-taking, his particular vision for opening up dialogues between well-known artists and others who are at the beginning of their adventures in art-making.
