3. What is one way that the Vogels assuaged their hunger for art?

The Vogels, known for their remarkable collection of contemporary art, creatively addressed their hunger for art by living modestly and saving money for their passion. This approach allowed them to acquire pieces by emerging artists, often purchasing works that others might overlook. They even famously committed to buying art only from artists whom they personally connected with, helping to foster artistic communities while building an impressive collection without breaking the bank! In a charming twist of fate, the Vogels' dedication to art led them to bypass lavish lifestyles in favor of an adventurous gallery-hopping life. Their small apartment became a vibrant hub for art lovers, and they would even share their collection through programs like “The 50 Works for 50 States,” enabling art institutions across the U.S. to showcase pieces from their extensive holdings, thereby spreading the joy of art to many beyond just their own walls!
