Tour of Cubism: The Leonard A. Lauder Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Dr. Page Knox led a tour for the V&AAF of the exhibition Cubism: The Leonard A. Lauder Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in January 2015
The Leonard A. Lauder Collection of Cubist art, now a promised gift to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, was being shown in public for the first time.
It consisted of eighty-one paintings, collages, drawings, and sculpture by the four preeminent Cubist artists: Georges Braque, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, and Pablo Picasso.
Dr. Knox gave the V&AAF group an interesting and informative perspective on both the collection and Cubism.
