She went on to exhibit and collect important works by the now classic modern artists such as Antoine Pevsner, Henry Moore, Henri Laurens, Alexander Calder, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, Constantin Brancusi, Jean Arp, Max Ernst, Pablo Picasso, George Braque, and Kurt Schwitters.  She then turned her sights to establish a museum for contemporary arts quickly acquiring ten Picassos, forty Ernsts, eight Mirós, four Magrittes, three Man Rays, three Dalís, one Klee, one Wolfgang Paalen, and one Chagall to name a few.

Her plans were interrupted by the war and after several short lived ventures she finally stopped collecting art, for the most part, in order to concentrate on working with museums to present what she already owned.  She also became concerned about figuring out what to do with her collection after her death.  Peggy decided to donate her home in Venice, the Palazzo, and the collection to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. The Palazzo museum finally opened a few years after Peggy’s death and the artwork continues to be displayed the way she designed it.  The Peggy Guggenheim collection is one of the most important museums in Italy for European and American art of the first half of the 20th century, encompassing Cubism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism.  It joins a host of Guggenheim museums around the world including Bilbao, Berlin, Las Vegas and New York.]]> http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?feed=rss2&p=2858 0 Betsy Eby opening at WW New York http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2851 http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2851#comments Tue, 31 Aug 2010 19:52:17 +0000 gallery http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2851 Please join us at Winston Wachter New York on Friday, September 10th from 6-8pm ]]> http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?feed=rss2&p=2851 0 Bo Bartlett and Betsy Eby featured in Coastal Living http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2840 http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2840#comments Mon, 30 Aug 2010 23:05:23 +0000 gallery http://blog.winstonwachter.com/?p=2840

Her plans were interrupted by the war and after several short lived ventures she finally stopped collecting art, for the most part, in order to concentrate on working with museums to present what she already owned.  She also became concerned about figuring out what to do with her collection after her death.  Peggy decided to donate her home in Venice, the Palazzo, and the collection to the Solomon R.

The Chelsea Art Museum in New York could face the loss of its charter following the news that its entire permanent collection of artwork had been pledged as collateral for a loan needed to pay its mortgage.  Founded and directed by Dorothea Keeser, the eight-year-old contemporary art museum has faced ongoing financial difficulties, with Keeser struggling to pay the mortgage on the 30,000 square foot building on West 22nd Street. Keeser acknowledges being aware of museum charter regulations, but defends her actions - emphasizing that she has been able to avoid selling art from the collection thus far by finding other ways to raise funds for the mortgage.  The permanent collection includes paintings and prints by abstract artists such as Jean Arp, Sam Francis, Joan Mitchell, and Robert Motherwell, and is worth $2.5 million according to Keeser. A separate company owned by Ms. Keeser bought the museum’s building and now owes Hudson Realty about $13 million.  The museum’s permanent collection was pledged as collateral against a separate, $350,000 loan from unnamed lenders completed this March in order to pay the interest on the original mortgage.  However, as recently as this week Ms. Keeser informed Hudson Realty that her company has declared bankruptcy.  Agreeing to pay rent on the building has allowed Keeser to continue museum operations there as normal and she remains hopeful that the museum can still be persevered, in part by developing its roof as a high-end restaurant.
