Celebrating Fifty Years a Trustee: Bruce B. Dayton Collection {an Exhibit at} The Minnesapolis Institute of Arts, May 17-August 16, 1992

Descripción

"The devoted service of Bruce B. Dayton as a trustee and his generousity as a collector and patron remind us of the integral relationship that has always existed between the American art museum and the private citizen. The history of these cultural institutions shows that they came into being through the concerted actions of a group of men and women who had a common passion for the visual arts and a belief that works of beauty and cultural value should be shared with the public. The American cpmmitment to the social importance of art is written into the charters of the great museums of our older metropolitan centers such as New York, Boston, and Washington, {D.C.}. To our nationaql credit this same spirit can be found in smaller cities throughout the United States." This book has 206 pages and is profusely illustrated. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
