The hour-long seminar will focus on the duo's immersive art collection and how they have acquired much of their collection online through numerous dealers, galleries, auction houses, and institutions globally. Their love of collecting art has developed into art advising services through Christopher + Christopher Art Advisory.

About the guests

Christopher + Christopher Art Advisory is a Houston-based contemporary art advisory firm that integrates art and design in a variety of contexts. This includes consulting on acquisitions, installation and management of private and corporate art collections.
 
Founded by collectors Cody Fitzsimmons and Christopher Scott with the goal to push the envelope for collecting in Houston and beyond, CCAA was formed to empower current and future collectors to build on the history of the region’s world-class arts community. CCAA believes that the legacy of the city’s most sophisticated patrons, John and Dominique de Menil, demands that we rally around our galleries, institutions and above all, artists, with a 21st Century outlook.
 
The region's collecting culture has been primed by its significant art history and is positioned perfectly to move forward into a new era. Christopher + Christopher Art Advisory are leading that charge.
