What I Buy and Why: Rob and Eric Thomas-Suwall on Collecting Art in North Dakota and the One Work Everyone Tries to Sit On
The couple also reveals which young artists they covet most.
Rob and Eric Thomas-Suwall.
In the handful of years since collectors Rob and Eric Thomas-Suwall purchased their first artwork in 2016 (which they discovered here), the couple has assembled a covetable and trendsetting collection of Surrealism-inspired contemporary art by primarily women-identifying and queer artists.
A surgeon and a political theory professor who live in the tiny town Minot, North Dakota, the couple are far from your typical urban-dwelling, finance-industry art buyers. They decided to give the pursuit a shot after seeing a David Hockney retrospective at the de Young Museum in San Francisco on their honeymoon.
