lawyer danielle falls art collection young collectors

Danielle Falls, a 32-year-old lawyer and fine art insurance broker, is profiled as a young collector building a contemporary art collection from a non-traditional background. She serves on the Bronx Museum of the Arts board of trustees, chairs its acquisitions committee, and is a patron of Project for Empty Space. Falls discusses her early collecting mistakes, her frustration with exclusivity in the art world, and her commitment to supporting underrepresented artists, particularly women sculptors and those working with unconventional materials and family archives. She has founded the Falls Foundation, a nonprofit private lending collection focused on emerging voices across the Americas.
