For six decades the battle raged - one of art history's most
fascinating stories.
In the 1920s, Dr. Albert Barnes began collecting art that no-one else
wanted, into one of the world's largest groupings of early modernist
painters, including Renoir, Cezanne, Monet, Gauguin, Picasso, and
Matisse. At Barnes' death in 1951, he placed restrictions in his will
to limit access to the collection. While reviewing fabulous art, we
will delve into the reasons behind this infamous court case, the yet
today has folks upset. The result was the new Barnes Museum in
Philadelphia.
Presenter Linda Loveland Reid is a graduate of SSU. She currently
lectures for SSU and Dominican Universities through their OLLI
programs. Linda authored two novels and is a London Award recipient.
Other interests include directing theater, and figurative and abstract
painting.
