Center for the History of Collecting at Frick Art Reference Library announces their next symposium,
Sculpture Collecting and Display, 1600-2000, which will be held at The Frick Collection on May 19
& 20, 2017.
This two-day symposium will showcase how approaches to collecting and displaying sculpture have varied and changed over the centuries, from the Kunstkammer of late Renaissance princes, to the
sculpture galleries of the eighteenth century, to garden sculpture ensembles and, finally to the challenges of displaying sculpture in public museums. Renowned art historian Malcolm Baker will offer the keynote address, which will be followed by a roster of
distinguished speakers from Europe and the United States. The symposium is made possible through the support of the Robert H. Smith Family Foundation.
