Art or Archive? What Matters To Artists’ Estates
In conjunction with the exhibition Downtown Pix: Mining the Fales Archives, 1961–1991
Ann Butler, Bard Center for Curatorial Studies; Mary Ellen Carroll, artist and Executor of the Robert Blanchon Estate; and Penny Pilkington, PPOW Gallery, will examine issues surrounding artists’ estates, their placement in archival repositories, copyright issues, and other concerns about the disposition of artists’ papers. They will explore how an artistic legacy is maintained and offer practical advice on securing an artist’s oeuvre.
