After 30 Years, I Get to See My Art Collection… and It Looks Good! 

The Cornell Art Museum in Delray Beach, FL, is exhibiting a good portion of the collection of Central American modern art that, with Suzanne Snyder, I’ve been assembling for nearly 30 years. Over that time, I’ve only seen it in small parts on the halls of my homes and offices. Seeing so many pieces (96) in one place was a rewarding experience. I was almost shocked by how strong it felt.

Suzanne and I did the curation, based on Central American Modernism, a book we produced on the project.

The collection is slated to be donated to the public, either in a museum I build somewhere, or, if I can’t afford that, in an established museum interested in the rich history and production of Central American modern art.

The exhibition will run through July 28 – so if you’re in the area, you might want to give it a look. Meanwhile, you can read about it here.

And here’s something else you might want to check out. Suzanne just told me that there will be a Book Talk at the museum on Sunday, June 23 at 1:00 featuring Latin American art scholar Carol Damian.
