"Cathy Vedovi is truly a citizen of the global art world. French by birth, educated at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, married to a Belgian art dealer and a longtime board member of the Bass Museum of Art in Miami Beach, she is both an adventurous designer and a passionate patron. In fact, next month she will be fêted as such when she is honoured at the Bass's annual fundraising gala."
"As a collector and designer, her tastes span Modern and contemporary. Her own collection includes works by Amy Sillman, Mike Kelley and Richard Pettibone. A dazzling interior-decoration project she completed for a client in Paris in 2021 (with the architect Benoit Dupuis) includes works by Takashi Murakami, Hans Hartung, Pamela Rosenkranz, Damien Hirst, Alex Hubbard, Nathalie Djurberg and Georges Rouault."
"I recently bought two Richard Pettibones from my husband's gallery, Vedovi Gallery-a silver Marilyn and a Campbell's Soup Can. What do you regret not buying when you had the chance? A first edition of Louise Bourgeois's wall-mounted Spider. If you could have any work from any museum in the world, what would it be? Andy Warhol's Double Elvis, the 1963 version from Ferus Gallery. I have always been obsessed with how this hypnotic work doubles with movement."
