INSIDE MADONNA’S MASSIVE ART COLLECTION
We did some sleuthing into what pop icon Madonna has in her art collection, which she’s been amassing since 1987. It turns out Madge is a fan of the modernists, including Pablo Picasso and Fernand Léger. She’s extremely protective of her Frida Kahlo paintings (see Madonna Refused to Loan a Frida Kahlo Painting to Detroit Institute of Arts for Blockbuster Show), and any Basquiats she owned were destroyed by the artist himself, who also happens to be her ex-lover (see Madonna Says Jean-Michel Basquiat Took Back and Destroyed Paintings He Gave Her).
