I've written before that my first museum was the Allen Memorial Art Museum on the campus of Oberlin College. it was near my hometown & I loved visiting. it was where I purchased my first piece of art -- Jean Charlot's "Naval Skirmish."
recently I donated some 40 pieces from my art collection to the Allen & the Charlot was one of those. for me the circle is complete.
Elisa Wike Hurley took this picture of me with some of the work just before movers came to pack it all up & take it away.
besides Charlot the other artists whose work I gave the Allen are Richard Anuskiewicz Leonard Baskin Miguel Ortiz Berrocal Joe Brainard Emerson Burkhart David Edward Byrd Otto Dix Howard Finster Paul Flora John Gill Ira Joel Haber Henry Halem Keith Haring Grace Hartigan David Hockney Jasper Johns Alex Katz R. B. Kitaj Jasper Krabbe Kirk Mangus Roberto Marquez Joan Miro Mark Mothersbaugh Joseph O'Sickey Pablo Picasso Otto Piene Fairfield Porter James Rosenquist P. Craig Russell Bert Stern Arthut Yanoff.
