Abstract

If you were hosting a dinner party for great artists of the past, you probably would not seat Rembrandt and Degas together. It's hard to imagine the hot-tempered humanist Rembrandt and the coldblooded formalist Degas having much to say to each other. But who knows? Here they are hanging like old pals at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in a small, lovely show focused on self-portraits and prints. Organized by the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, in association with the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Mass., and the Met, ''Rembrandt and Degas: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man'' proposes that Rembrandt influenced Degas more profoundly than anyone has suspected. In that regard, the show is illuminating but not wholly convincing. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

8. The Bowery's New, Narrow Showcase for Art.

Abstract

Back in the fall of 2008, when Sperone Westwater Gallery announced plans to construct an eight-story building of its own on the Bowery, it seemed a bold but possibly foolhardy idea. Almost a year into the great recession, it did not appear to be the most propitious moment for such a daring and expensive move. Despite the New Museum's new building a block south of the designated site and several dozen smaller galleries recently opening in the neighborhood, it was not clear that the Lower East Side was destined to supplant Chelsea as the go-to place for contemporary-art enthusiasts.

14. Showing a Couple's Eye For Art (and Money).

Author

KAPLAN, FRED

Subjects
*ART exhibitions, *ART museums, *PORTRAITS
Abstract

A half-century ago, before the phrase ''Pop Art'' was even coined, a taxi tycoon named Robert C. Scull started buying up dozens of works by artists like Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol. When Mr. Johns had an exhibition at Castelli Gallery, and none of it was selling, Mr. Scull bought the whole show. He commissioned Warhol's first portrait. He gave James Rosenquist his first sale after a visit to his studio. He gave John Chamberlain enough money to let him quit his hairdressing job and focus exclusively on being a sculptor.
