Thank you for this what is for me, an introduction to some very talented artists and a selection of their pieces. What a fascinating journey that started with a lady in a pink cape......
I don't know if you find your purchasing as enlightened, or, what I consider parochial, or a compromise. Although your talk was informative I take issue with your statement "... A modern woman who was capable of doing everything she please." I find this comment particularly limited in scope and you should have amended it with -- as long as you were, white, wealthy and willing to accept the status quo. Because, as we know from history, even an "independent" woman of the time had to accept the racist, classist power structure of the wealthy and caucasian male privilege. Where is your purchases of the art of those of lesser means? The art is out there. Why not get some?
