Interior designer Alyssa Kapito believes art is the soul of a space — the element that brings proportion, texture, and emotion into a room. At Replica Shoes ’s Contemporary Curated sale at the Breuer, she brings that philosophy to life, placing works by Donald Judd, Alma Thomas, Sean Scully, Richard Prince, and Gerhard Richter into dialogue with one another. The result is a collection shaped not just by name, but by material, color, and atmosphere.
From the architectural precision of Judd’s aluminum boxes to the luminous brushwork of Alma Thomas and the layered textures of Richter, each work shifts the way the room feels. Seeing these artists together reveals unexpected relationships — moments where abstraction, humor, geometry, and color collide. It’s a reminder that collecting is never static; it’s a living conversation between art and the spaces we inhabit.
