Book Inspiring Legacy

Download or read book Inspiring Legacy written by Syril Levin Kline and published by Bublish, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “David and Carmen’s contribution to the culture of the capital city in Washington was absolutely extraordinary.” —Mstislav Rostropovich, Former Musical Director, The National Symphony “David Kreeger was the cultural center of Washington before it was a cultural center, and to his actions and words, in great part, Washington owes its centrality.”—Isaac Stern, Internationally Renowned Concert Violinist Raised in different cultures, David Kreeger and Carmen Matanzo met in Puerto Rico while David was working as a lawyer for the Interior Department. They fell in love, married, and ultimately settled in Washington, DC. Both were accomplished amateur musicians who shared a passion for art, music, theater, and literature. In Inspiring Legacy, author Syril Levin Kline chronicles the Kreeger’s lifelong patronage of the arts in the nation’s capital. David’s success at the helm of GEICO insurance enabled the couple to make significant donations to major national arts institutions such as the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts while also acquiring works by many 19th and 20th century European artists including Monet, Picasso, Degas, Renoir and Van Gogh as well as masterpieces of African art. As their collection grew, even the Kreeger's home—referred to in the media as “the jewel on Foxhall Road” for its stunning Mediterranean-inspired design by architect Philip Johnson—became a gateway to the arts. In 1990, only months before his death, David was presented with the National Medal of Arts Award at the White House. Four years later, Carmen and the couple’s children fulfilled David’s wish that their home become The Kreeger Museum, which is open to the public and displays about 180 works. Carmen died in 2003, but the couple’s enduring legacy of philanthropy and love of the arts lives on.

Download or read book The Fine Arts in America written by Joshua C. Taylor and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1981-02-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Though comparatively short, it is no once-over-lightly chronicle full of insignificant names and dates. It brilliantly achieves its principal aim: to provide readers with a compact but broad and well rounded conception of the progress of the fine arts in America from ca. 1670 to the present day. . . . It is a fascinating book, full of new vistas; it has all the earmarks of an instant classic."—American Artist "[Taylor] describes changing definitions of art as much as he describes art itself, and he shows how the shifting forms of patronage affected the forms of art. He analyzes artists' associations . . . and he shows how museums and schools have expanded the audience for art. In short, he places artists and their work in cultural context. This treatment of the social history of art is the most original and intriguing aspect of Taylor's sketch."—Journal of American History "This is a brilliantly subtle book. It builds with one insight after another, and suddenly the reader finds that a whole new way of looking at American art is being proposed. . . . After decades of thinking and looking and teaching, Dr. Taylor has written it all down. This work will become a classic interpretation almost overnight."—Peter Marzio, director, Corcoran Gallery of Art "Interest in American art is unlikely to abate. . . . Mr. Taylor's short book is an invaluable guide through this activity and to its traditions."—Neil Harris, Wall Street Journal
