My Favorite Things

In the two decades since Adam Pendleton staged his first solo show, the Virginia-born, Brooklyn-based conceptual artist has gone on to have his work—which now ranges from drawings and paintings to performance and video installations—shown at MoMA, the Mumok, and the Venice Biennale. Ahead of his latest exhibition, An Abstraction, at New York’s Pace Gallery, Pendleton spotlights the pieces that have earned a place in his home, studio, and travel bag

Bellocq

The Chai Gift Set

“I’m never without a cup of Bellocq tea—I have at least four kinds in rotation. My favorite is Bellocq’s Canyon Chai.”

Gabriela Hearst

Everly Overshirt in Black Organic Cotton

“I love a shirt that can double as a light jacket, and I’m in awe of Gabriela Hearst’s commitment to sustainability and detail.”

Judd Foundation

$93

Donald Judd Spaces

“My studio spaces are a source of inspiration for me. Donald Judd understood that, too, and this book captures all of his studio spaces brilliantly. I keep a copy at the studio and at home.”

Beige Compleat Trousers

“I’m never in doubt about what pants to wear.”

Ginger Breath Mints

“My go-to mints—highly addictive and effective. My husband is an executive at the company, so he ensures I always have a supply.”

DABA Press

$50

Joan Jonas

“I love drawings in general, and I particularly love Joan Jonas’s drawings. It was a no-brainer when the opportunity presented itself to publish a book focusing on this important aspect of her work through my studio’s publishing imprint, DABA Press.”

Apple

$1,199

MacBook Air 15” Laptop

“My paintings go through many drafts and revisions, and I spend long hours reviewing layers on my computer—comfortably and uncomfortably in bed.”
