Last weekend, Cultivist Members were treated to a visit to Diane Allen’s private collection, and we haven’t stopped thinking about it.
As an art collector, philanthropist, entrepreneur, tastemaker, and longtime supporter of the arts, @dianeal23 has built a life around the belief art has the power to connect, inspire, and create meaningful change.
Over the decades, Allen has built a wide-ranging collection with a particular emphasis on contemporary and emerging artists. Her collection includes works by Takashi Murakami, Genevieve Gaignard, Andy Warhol, Zanele Muholi, Tavares Strachan, Faith Wilding, Kerry James Marshall, and others. Her approach to collecting extends beyond acquiring works; it is rooted in building relationships with artists and actively supporting their careers. As Allen describes it, purchasing work from an emerging artists can be an act of “love and encouragement” - a tangible way of helping an artist continue to create.
Allen has also played an active role in supporting contemporary art in the public realm. As a board member of Desert X, she has contributed to the organization’s fundraising, promotion, and ambitious large-scale exhibitions across the Coachella Valley and surrounding desert landscape. Having joined Desert X early in its development, she has participated in multiple editions of the biennial and remains deeply engaged with its mission to make ambitious contemporary art freely accessible beyond traditional institutional settings.

The 61st International Art Exhibition of @labiennale comes to a close on 22nd November, 2026. With just under 2 weeks left, we wanted to take the opportunity to reflect on some of our favorite moments, pavilions, and exhibitions.

At @palaisdetokyo , the exhibition “I telman nwè ki i blé (So Black It Turns Blue” by @valerie_john_plasticienne presents a selection of works after her return to Martinique in the 1990s.
These works vary in form and medium, from paper and textiles to installations, books, and clothing. Each piece building an immersive journey, rooted in symbolism linked to water, grief, transatlantic memory, reparation, and the sense of being a corporeal “other.”
Valérie John “I telman nwè ki i blé (So Black it Turns Blue)” is on view at Palais de Tokyo through 14 February, 2027

This month, Cultivist Members got to experience a before-hours, expert-led tour of “Brancusi: The Artist and His Studio” at @themuseumofmodernart in NYC.
Over four decades, Brancusi’s studio on impasse Ronsin in Paris was where he worked, lived, entertained friends, displayed his sculptures, and experimented with materials. MoMA brings that studio to life across the Atlantic, featuring works from their own collection, as well as loans from local collections, Atelier Brancusi, and Centre Pompidou.

Last week, Cultivist members got to visit the @mspfoundation for a guided tour through the shared facility and private studios. We were lucky enough to take a look into the working spaces of artists, learning about their practices firsthand.
The @minnesotastreetproject was founded in 2019 with the goal of providing artists at all career stages with a space, tools, and support needed to advance their practices. The foundation offers below-market-rate studios residencies, exhibitions, and more, all with their 20,000 square-foot contemporary art exhibition space.

Earlier this year, @ali.cherri @nahuel_perez_biscayart and @ericcantona ’s film “La Sentinelle” premiered at the 2026 edition of Festival de Cannes. The film, co-produced by @palaisdetokyo is now on view in Paris, presented within a new installation by Cherri specifically for Palais de Tokyo.
The exhibition, titled “Today Is Okay” extends the film off the screen, using decor and sculpture in a way that bolsters the film’s questions around war, the infrastructure of conflict, and the effects of these concepts on individual imaginations.
Ali Cherri’s “Today Is Okay” is on View at Palais de Tokyo through 14 February, 2027

Every year, we take Club Level members somewhere the art scene is having a moment, and we open the doors that usually stay closed: artists’ studios, private homes, museums after the crowds have gone. These are a few of the highlights for where we’re headed in 2027.
Check out more details about these trips, and how you can get access to them using the link in our bio! 🔗

Working from his family photo albums, @josephsradford spent months removing his father from childhood photographs and rebuilding the spaces he left behind, then recreating each image as a lenticular prints.
We spoke with William about acceptance, how the creative process can double as a healing process, and inverting the roles that emerging technologies can play in creating something so personal.

Looking back at last week’s #CreativeTable with @georgerouy and @thecultivist. For the occasion, the menu reflected George Rouy’s fascination with Dutch Renaissance still-life paintings depicting grand banquets, with their opulent compositions inspiring both the tablescape and dining experience at @bernerstavern. Oysters and roast chicken, served on wooden boards, reflected the rustic, abundant feasts depicted in the paintings, creating a setting that felt both considered and convivial. A celebration of food, art and design, and of bringing the cultural community together around the table.
