Symposium
Reflections across the Pond: British Models of Collecting and the American Response
New York, May 6–7, 2011
The Center for the History of Collecting in America at The Frick Collection and The Frick Art Reference Library
Fifteen speakers will examine British collecting practices during the nineteenth century and discuss how subsequent generations of American collectors embraced the British tradition while developing their own models of collecting, both privately and for the public good. James Stourton, Chairman of Sotheby’s UK, will deliver the Keynote Address. Other speakers include Shelley M. Bennett (Huntington Library and Art Collections), Sir David Cannadine (Princeton University), Neil Harris (University of Chicago), and Jean Strouse (New York Public Library).
