Mansion of Art & Haus of Collectors: Our Story
Every collection begins somewhere. For Haus of Collectors, that beginning did not start with a print studio. It began with an agency, a city, and a firm belief that art should never sit behind glass, accessible to only a privileged few.
This story reveals our origins, explains why our lineage matters, and defines the standard for every print that leaves our studio.
Mansion of Art: The Agency Behind the Haus of Collectors
Mansion of Art operates as a boutique cultural agency rooted in deep, long-term relationships with contemporary artists. The agency thrives at the intersection of art and culture, connecting artists with brands, hospitality destinations, collectors, and real estate developments. These clients demand art woven directly into their brand identity, not tacked on as an afterthought.
The agency masters three core disciplines: artist representation, cultural activations with brand partnerships, and collection building through expert curation and art advisory. We serve interior designers seeking commission-managed artist sourcing, hospitality groups building cultural programming, and private collectors seeking access to significant works before they reach the open market.
Mansion of Art deliberately limits its roster. We accept only a small number of artists and collaborations each year. We consider this a philosophy, not a limitation. We prioritize depth over volume, relationships over transactions, and meaning over decoration.
Rooted in Paris and Deauville
Mansion of Art anchors its presence in two of the world's most culturally distinctive locations.
Paris drives the international contemporary art market. Its vibrant gallery scene, serious collectors, and endless appetite for artists with genuine messages make it the perfect home for an agency that takes culture seriously.
Deauville, the storied coastal town in Normandy, commands its own artistic and cultural weight. Here, the art world gathers away from the noise of major fairs. Collectors, brands, and artists deepen their relationships and hold meaningful conversations without the pressure of a booth or a deadline.
Maintaining a physical presence in both cities builds the trust and access that define everything we do.
How Haus of Collectors Was Born
Sarah Zavala, Ashley Mobley, and Toni De La Torre founded Haus of Collectors in 2025. They forged their collective expertise in curation, artist development, and luxury art experiences directly inside the world's Mansion of Art.
They asked a simple question: Why should only boutique-agency clients or Parisian gallery visitors have access to these incredible artists and their premium work?
Haus of Collectors provides the answer. We launched this digital-first print studio under the Mansion of Art umbrella to deliver museum-quality fine art prints to collectors at every stage of their journey. We offer open editions for beginners, limited editions for intentional builders, and hand-embellished editions for those seeking absolute exclusivity.
We maintained the quality standard, the artist relationships, and the curatorial eye. We simply expanded the access.
What This Means for You as a Collector
When you collect through Haus of Collectors, you avoid algorithmic marketplaces that aggregate thousands of artists. Instead, you enter a world built on authentic artist relationships and curatorial judgment refined over years of professional practice. We commit to archival quality because we know exactly what museum-grade materials do for a collection's longevity.
The Museum of Art laid the foundation for these prints. That foundation lives in Paris, thrives in Deauville, and breathes in every collaboration the agency builds with the artists shaping contemporary culture right now.
Your collection begins here, but it connects you to a much larger world.
