Editor Ray Merritt and philanthropist Henry Buhl will join art collector Joseph M. Cohen to discuss the publication of Shared Space: The Joseph M. Cohen Collection, and his strategy of gathering one of the most varied and personal art collections in the world. The Cohen Family Collection is vast, but also very personal, often with a tale behind each work. Among the highlights of this collection are paintings by Tiepolo, Degas, Matisse, Picasso, Chagall, Balthus, Ellsworth Kelly, Frank Stella, Joan Mitchell and David Hockney, and photographs by Atget, Dorothea Lange, Irving Penn, Avedon, Sugimoto and Chuck Close. Edited by Merritt, this massive celebration of the collection illustrates many of the works in situ, and, through informative and entertaining commentary, casts light on their diversity and significance.
