The House Position

In 2025, the house collected quietly. In 2026, Medici Art Club opens its doors.

Thermal deep-field study of distant galaxies, from the house collection.
300+ Works held in the house collection.
26 Artists represented across four centuries.

Medici Art Club exists to put the house collection to work: in rooms where members argue, trade and commission.

Membership is by application and capped at 120 seats. A seat buys entry to every salon, first refusal on new acquisitions, and a vote when the house commissions a living artist.

The club sits inside Elysium, the house that built the collection. Twelve salons a year. Four rooms. One standard.

Founder: speaks in the third person
The house does not chase movements. It builds the rooms where they begin.
01

Works

Dithered plate of an old master's face, ink dots on the orange ground.

What the house holds

Three hundred works, four centuries, one thread: conviction over consensus. The collection was assembled piece by piece, never at auction fever, and it shows.

In this wing:
  • The permanent collection
  • New acquisitions, argued in public
  • The commission programme
  • Loans and the long game
  • Condition, provenance, care
Enter the Works wing
02

Craft

Dithered plate of a standing figure, paper dots on the ink ground.

How the house works

Acquisition is a craft. The house buys slowly, restores obsessively, and documents everything. Members see the ledger, the losses included.

In this wing:
  • The acquisition ledger, open
  • Restoration in the west room
  • Documentation as doctrine
  • When the house passes
  • What a work must survive

The Club

Dithered plate of a horizon at dusk, orange dots on the paper ground.

Who sits at the table

One hundred and twenty seats, twelve salons a year. Collectors, makers and the merely obsessed, arguing in the same room. The house moderates and pours.

In this wing:
  • The salon calendar
  • How a seat is won
  • House rules, all seven
  • The annual table
  • Guests of the house
