Description
Summary:Discusses La Maison Rouge in Paris, a gallery that organises exhibitions of private collections. The author considers the display of private collections in museums such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, notes that private collections such as the Frick Collection in New York have recently become public exhibitions, and focuses on exhibitions at La Maison Rouge such as L'intime, le collectionneur derrière la porte, which recreated the original settings of the private collections it exhibited. He details the works exhibited by artists such as André Arbus, Andreas Gursky, Giulio Paolini, Maurizio Cattelan, Jan Vercruyesse, Franz West, Fabrice Hybert, and Hanne Darboven at the museum, and examines the implications of giving artists such as Andy Warhol free rein over their own collections.
