jon neidich nightlife cool young collectors

Jon Neidich, a 43-year-old New York nightlife entrepreneur and collector who chairs the board of Creative Time, discusses his art collection in an interview. He shares that his first purchases were works from Robert Longo's "Men in the Cities" series and a Tracey Emin neon titled "Trust Yourself," which offered a wholesome counterpoint to his nightlife-focused world. Neidich credits his mother, Brooke Garber Neidich, a voracious collector of mid-century and contemporary artists, for teaching him to navigate the art world. He also recounts a hard-won acquisition of Victor Moscoso and Lee Conklin rock posters from Matthew Marks gallery, and highlights John Baldessari's "Throwing Three Balls in the Air to Get a Straight Line" as a piece he often stares at.
