Celebrity Collectors is a series that explores the fascinating and mysterious world of high-profile art collections.

When the Beckham household name is reportedly worth upwards of $1 billion, one wonders the kind of art that the family collects. In fact, David and Victoria Beckham have been known to be movers and shakers in the London art world.

In 2010, an insider told the Mirror that “David in particular is a huge patron of provocative British art. As well as purchasing works by the biggest and most famous names in the art world, he is also a keen champion of lesser known, up and coming painters.” The collection, which is reportedly “love-themed,” include works by artists like Sam Taylor Wood, Banksy, and, a big favorite of theirs, Tracey Emin.

See which artists the couple has been following below.
