Tony, not John Podesta had the significant and creepy AF art collection. He dug a $1million basement under his DC house ( and a spent $100k on an audio/video system for ( in his words ) 'displaying art installations'.
Note: His house was just doors away from the mansion the Obama's bought in the Kalorama area of DC.
Currently he has collected from 40 different artists in some depth, with his top five being Marina Abramovic, Vik Muniz, Bourgeois, Olafur Eliasson and Antony Gormley.
