Checking in with Chicago's Collectors

June 4, 2009 by Marion Maneker

Hockney, American Collectors

David Patrick Columbia’s New York Social Diary runs this “Letter from Chicago” by Charlie Scheips where he remarks on this Hockney painting:

The collection of the Art Institute has always been amazing but now it has a venue where it can really show off its stuff including the great Hockney painting of the late Los Angeles art patrons Fred and Marcia Weisman entitled American Collectors of 1968. The Weisman’s unwisely didn’t buy the painting when they could have — now to Chicago’s benefit.
