Art with none of the pretense. At Prospect we’re putting high culture within reach – we’re out to dispel the notion that collecting art is an exclusive, high-priced hobby. Put simply, we’re the go-to for anyone seeking out incredible art at accessible prices.
We scour the globe for the latest in materials and techniques, then work with respected contemporary artists to create limited-edition design objects and collectible, exclusive art products – pieces that are as beautiful as they are affordable. We limit production to small batches because likes discovering their piece in every friend of a friend’s living room. But you’ll still see your art at all the big-name places, like the Museum of Contemporary Art
and Through the Flower; and boutique hotels and galleries including Jeffrey Deitch Los Angeles. Check out our collection and when something grabs you, know that it won’t make a grab for your entire month’s salary, too. Inclusive and attainable. Exactly how art should be.
Judy Chicago The trailblazer
You may know her as a key player in the feminist movement, but Judy Chicago is much, much more. Think innovators and early adopters – then go one step earlier, and you’ll find Chicago. She is a pioneer who sees art as language. And like any language, she believes art can be learned, it must be used and maintained, and it must evolve.
Chicago is an artist, author of 14 books, and educator whose work shouts out for women’s rights to freedom of expression. She founded a feminist art and art education program in California in the early 1970s, then created ‘The Dinner Party’: an epic installation now housed at the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at New York’s Brooklyn Museum. From 1974 to 1979, she painstakingly arranged the 39 place settings that make up the artwork – places for prehistoric goddesses, women in Christianity and the Reformation, and early revolutionaries such as Virginia Woolf and Georgia O’Keeffe. It’s the ultimate can’t-miss dinner party, and Judy Chicago is the ultimate powerhouse host.
Misha Kahn The maximalist
Misha Kahn is absurd, disheveled, spontaneous and eclectic. Whether you’re taking in his designs or sculptures, exploring a work by Kahn is a bit like stepping into a world that’s part Willy Wonka, part Neverending Story, part Chronicles of Narnia. Large-scale chandeliers, highly textured tapestries, over-the-top furniture, and extravagant, printed wallpapers lend a retro-futuristic vibe to Kahn’s work. His symphonies of color are both nostalgic and fantastical – you’ll want to look everywhere and at everything at once. Kahn is highly experimental in both his technique and his materials of choice, using everything from concrete and aluminum to paint, resin, hand-blown glass and even grass.
Nothing is off-limits when it comes to exploration in Kahn’s work; his projects range from climbing walls for cats, an underwater playground – to funky-functional housewares and accessories. His work has appeared in W, The New York Times, Architectural Digest and Surface magazine, and has been exhibited at the Friedman Benda gallery and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
Kate Neckel The dreamer
You’d be forgiven for thinking you saw one of Kate Neckel’s drawings in your dreams; such is the imaginative, thoughtful nature of her work. Sometimes childlike, often whimsical, Neckel’s pieces tell stories – ones that are highly open to interpretation and prone to many twists and turns.
But this comes as no surprise – after all, Neckel herself has been illustrating and drawing since she can remember. Her work has been exhibited all over the country: in galleries, on billboards, in public spaces such as Hudson Studios, on the walls of private residences and the Ace Hotel NYC. She once documented the beginnings of Zac Posen’s career, so she’s familiar with the fashion set, too: you’ve probably seen her drawings in Vogue, Vanity Fair, InStyle, GQ and O. Ultimately, Neckel’s style feels familiar in that homely, comforting way and lends itself perfectly to towels, bedding and other plush accessories.
Enoc Perez The optimist
There’s a sense of place in Enoc Perez’s work. Sometimes it’s a very small room shared by you and another person; sometimes it’s a building, a hotel, an architectural icon or a landscape. The effect is invariably the same. Perez’s paintings transport you somewhere else: another city, another country, and often another time altogether.
Nostalgia pervades Perez’s oil-stick paintings, but his work is contemporary in only the way that vibrant hues and unusual color combinations can feel. With his buildings, it’s not always clear if you’re gazing at something from the 1920s, the 1950s or the 21st century, but there’s an optimism that beams through – perhaps the utopian ambitions that fueled the real-life versions (when they exist) in the first place. Perez’s still-lifes and nudes are vibrant and sleek; there’s a subtle confidence to his subjects. His work can be found in the permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, as well as the British Museum in London and the Museum of Contemporary Art in North Miami.
