The Anticus team is thrilled to share some fantastic news to kick off 2020: We’re moving to a new, larger space, across from Postino and just a few steps away from our current gallery in Kierland Commons!
(If you want to plug it into your GPS, our official address will be 15051 N Kierland Blvd Suite 180, Scottsdale, AZ 85254.)
At Anticus, we consider culture something to be enjoyed and experienced, not just considered at a distance in academic terms. Bringing fine art into our family’s homes and offices and adding books to our nightstands enriches us in a way that reminds us of the words written 200 years ago by Romantic poet John Keats: “beauty is truth, truth beauty.” Culture brings both the world’s beauty and truth into our everyday lives.
The holiday season always brings back memories of childhood, whether you grew up sledding and skating in the snowy north or basking in the sunny warmth of Arizona. Days filled up with the anticipation and excitement, holiday meals and parties with friends and family, and staying up way past bedtime to watch the ball drop in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. As we get older, our perspective changes – especially as we see the kids in our lives experiencing what we remembered – but the magic of the season always remains.
As the holidays come into full swing, you’ve surely been making lists and checking them twice. In that spirit, here are two ideas that will make a perfect match – offering both beauty and intellectual connections for the people on your lists. Shopping locally at Anticus not only offers the advantage of experiencing your gift purchase firsthand, but we’ll also gift wrap it for that extra personalized touch.
It’s the time of year when the scents of pine and cinnamon and sounds of holiday music permeate the air – and gift giving is on everybody’s minds. Just like you, we at Anticus believe in removing (as much as possible) the anxiety that often comes with this process. You can shop much of our inventory right from the website or for the true Anticus experience stop by and explore.
