One New York City artist is supporting struggling creatives during the COVID pandemic by purchasing over $70,000 worth of art nationwide.
Black artist Guy Stanley Philoche currently lives in a modest studio apartment in Harlem, but it could double as a remarkable art gallery – boasting tens of thousands of dollars in artwork dressing its walls.
“I want to make sure people have food on the table and a roof over their head, but the main thing, too, is that I want people to dream again, to have hope and to feel confident about their work,” said Philoche.
NBC New York’s Linda Gaudino sat down with Philoche to find out how this all started and key advice for young artists wishing to DREAM BIG.
