The Art of Curation at The Capston

The FT's art market correspondent and Editor at Large of The Art Newspaper, Melanie Gerlis, leads a discussion between artist Vincenzo Muratore, sculptor Anna Gillespie, and Anastasia Anastasiadou, Gallery Director of Mulryan Gallery, on how thoughtfully curated art collections can transform buildings into places with identity, character and lasting cultural value. As the final phase of Ballymore's Embassy Gardens, The Capston has been conceived as more than a residential development. A carefully curated collection of paintings, sculpture and site-specific commissions is woven throughout its interiors, creating moments of discovery and establishing a distinctive sense of place for residents. The discussion will explore the collaborative process between developer, curator and artist, examining how art is selected, commissioned and integrated into architecture, and why curation is becoming an increasingly important part of luxury residential design.
