March 31, 2014 by Marion Maneker

Presented without comment from the NY Post’s Page Six:

“I’m going to slowly become an art collector,” Perry, 29, told E! News at MOCA’s 35th Anniversary Gala in Los Angeles Saturday. “Today, we had an all-day art crawl. We got to see some private collections from some people’s homes and then we went to a couple of galleries.”

The singer spent the weekend admiring works by Pablo Picasso, Roy Lichtenstein and Jeff Koons.

“What I’m really drawn to is modern contemporary art and pop art, of course,” she said. “Also some key photography. I’ve always loved Cindy Sherman and today I got interested in Lee Friedlander … This is all brand new. I’m really interested in having an art history education.”
