Julianne Moore Keeps a Bourgeois and a Goldin at Home in the West Village
The actor's residence in the West Village holds pieces by three artists whose names carry weight in any serious contemporary collection: Louise Bourgeois, Nan Goldin and David Armstrong. Two of the holdings have been identified by title. One is a Bourgeois on paper from 2007, called My Secret Life. The other is a Goldin from 1994, New York skyline from bridge, an image of the city taken from one of its own crossings, so that a view of New York now hangs inside a New York home. Armstrong is the third artist represented, though no specific piece of his has been named. Nothing about what Moore paid, or when, has been made public, and this publication does not guess at private figures. For readers who follow what hangs in the city's downtown houses, it is the pairing that stands out: a late Bourgeois and a mid-nineties Goldin sharing the same walls, a few blocks from the galleries where both artists' work has long been shown.
