Susanne Bartsch, the legendary New York City nightlife icon, recently opened the doors to her Chelsea Hotel apartment, offering a rare glimpse into her extraordinary art collection. As a resident since 1981, Bartsch has transformed her space into a living gallery that reflects her vibrant personality and storied career.

Our key takeaways:

**1. Art as Self-Expression**

For Bartsch, art is not just about hanging paintings on walls; it's a way of life. "To me, art is what I'm doing. Looks express myself; it's part of my art world," she explains. This philosophy is evident in every corner of her apartment, where each piece tells a unique story

**2.The Power of Personal Connection**

What makes Bartsch's collection truly special is the personal story behind each piece. "Everything I have is something I can tell you a story about," she says. This approach turns her apartment into a living memoir of her influential role in New York's nightlife and fashion scenes

**3. The Chelsea Hotel: A Cultural Icon**

Bartsch's residence in the Chelsea Hotel adds another layer of significance to her collection. As one of the last original residents, she has witnessed the hotel's transformation and played a part in maintaining its artistic legacy
