HAADA offers a judiciously curated group of diverse international contemporary artists. We herald all modes of expression, focusing on the cerebral and emotional intersection of form and function. HAADA promotes conceptual disruptors as well as contemporary traditionalists, side by side, all whilst looking to the future to support environmentally-conscious practices. Together our aim is to discover and develop innovative thinking and making to identify the new icons of our time.
Founded by Christian Larsen and Whitney Godfrey Hardin, HAADA uniquely brings together institutional level critique and curation with invaluable connections to the world’s leading interior designers and private collectors. Christian Larsen is a curator and professor who has held distinguished positions at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, Bard Graduate Center, the Wolfsonian-Florida International University, and The Museum of Arts & Design, NY. Whitney Godfrey Hardin has a MAFDA from Sotheby’s London and 15 years experience as Director of some of NYC’s top art and design galleries with a deep knowledge of the international market. Together, the partnership brings a unique connoisseurship for the discovery and cultivation of the new icons of our time.
