Renowned power couple Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys have unveiled exciting news about their upcoming art exhibition, “GIANTS: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys.” The exhibition is set to open on February 10 at the Brooklyn Museum, promising an extraordinary display of their extensive art collection.
In a joint statement shared on Instagram, Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys expressed their enthusiasm, saying, “Been holding this incredible news close to the chest. Now, it’s our pleasure to officially announce GIANTS: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys opening on February 10 @brooklynmuseum! Tickets to #GiantsBkM available now!!!!!! A MUST SEE SHOW. Let’s get 2024 started!! A BIG special thank you to all the GIANTS in the show!!! @TheDeanCollection.”
Swizz Beatz has been a dedicated art collector since the 1990s and previously served on the board of directors for the Brooklyn Museum from 2015 to 2023. The exhibition will predominantly feature works by Black artists, aligning with Swizz Beatz’s commitment to supporting and highlighting African American art. In an interview with the New York Times, Swizz emphasized the importance of doubling down on African American art, as it was historically underrepresented in art collections.
Despite Swizz and Keys’ significant contributions to the art world, the curator of the museum’s modern and contemporary art noted their sometimes overlooked status in the art collecting sphere.
Last year, Swizz Beatz celebrated his 45th birthday in grand style at Chateau Margaux just outside of Bordeaux. The extravagant event, hosted and sponsored by Hennessey, featured French wine, fresh fish, and more. Swizz expressed gratitude on social media, thanking everyone for the love and blessings, with special appreciation for his thoughtful wife Alicia Keys for orchestrating the unique celebration.
As anticipation builds for “GIANTS: Art from the Dean Collection,” art enthusiasts and fans alike can look forward to a remarkable showcase of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys’ curated collection at the Brooklyn Museum.
