Description

For more than 30 years, Thea Westreich Wagner and Ethan Wagner have devoted themselves to contemporary art, and through their passion and acumen have assembled an extraordinary collection.

This handsomely illustrated volume is the first to document the collection of Thea Westreich Wagner and Ethan Wagner, more than 850 artworks in all media that have been promised to the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and the Centre Pompidou, Paris.

Artists represented include Lee Friedlander, Robert Gober, Jeff Koons, Christopher Wool, Ryan Gander, and Bernadette Corporation, among others, and the works span from the 1950s to 2014.   Over 300 highlights illustrate the collectors’ commitment to acquiring works that challenge, excite, confound, and amuse.

Essays offer context for understanding the importance of the works as a group and illuminate the art world milieus in which the collectors immersed themselves.

The book also includes an engaging interview with the collectors, providing a personal perspective on contemporary art acquisition. Distributed for the Whitney Museum of American ArtExhibition Schedule:Whitney Museum of American Art (11/20/15–03/06/16)Centre Pompidou, Paris 06/16/16–01/2017
