On August 20th, the heart of Chelsea buzzed with conversation, curiosity, and creative exchange. Investors, collectors, and industry professionals gathered for an intimate event co-hosted by New Land Capital and Crossing Art USA to explore a bold idea: that when thoughtfully integrated, art and real estate can create enduring value.

Grace Sprite, Managing Director of New Land Capital, opened the discussion with a deep dive into strategies for private real estate investment — highlighting the role of direct property holdings and fund structures in building resilient portfolios.

Catherine Lee, Founder of Crossing Art USA, followed with an equally compelling lens on art: its aesthetic power, its emotional resonance, and its investment potential.

Together, they explored how integrating art into real estate projects can elevate both design and desirability — making properties more than assets, but living expressions of culture and community.

As the evening unfolded, the exchange of ideas became as rich as the artwork on display. Managing Partner Sam(Hangyuan) Zhang joined the conversations, offering reflections on New Land Capital’s commitment to forward-thinking, cross-disciplinary investment.

It was a night that reminded us: where creativity and strategy intersect, new possibilities emerge.
