“[Arne Glimcher] said, ‘I really think that you should learn a little bit more about art, and the things you want to acquire.’ And our next stop that day was to meet Leo Castelli. He said the very same thing: ‘I wish that you’d take a year, to learn more about what you are going to be collecting.’”
Words to the wise.
From Sotheby’s:
In this video Barbara and Morton Mandel recount their journey as passionate collectors of 20th and 21st-century art. Throughout their lives, the Mandels have acquired examples by Modern and Post War masters – from Pablo Picasso to Donald Judd. The collection’s breadth attests to the couple’s dedication to selecting only great works. Raising The Bar: Masterworks from the Collection of Morton and Barbara Mandel will be held on the evening of 16 May prior to our Contemporary Art Evening Auction.
