So when the apartment above theirs became available, they couldn't resist the opportunity to buy it. With the extra space, they could showcase their art collection to a greater effect.

Longtime benefactors in the art world, the Andersons have amassed a collection that includes works by the world's foremost glass artists as well as other renowned artists.
