Hey friends,
“Herb and Dorothy,” a wonderful documentary about two contemporary art collectors is playing on PBS’ “Independent Lens” tonight at 10 and is really worth a watch. They crammed something like 10,000 works of art into a one-bedroom apartment.
“He was a postal clerk. She was a librarian. With modest means, this couple managed to build one of the most important modern art collections in history. Meet Herbert and Dorothy Vogel, whose shared passion and commitment defied stereotypes and redefined what it means to be an art collector.”
