Nothing Except 34 Paintings | Documentary Short

Join us during Art Walk at MOCA to screen the film. In 1955, a collection of contemporary artworks, including some made by the world’s leading artists of the time, was donated to the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. Thousands flocked to the museum to see the new collection; but how was it exactly that Eugen Kolb, then the museum’s director, managed to obtain such an impressive collection to begin with? What motivated a famous art collector such as Peggy Guggenheim to donate a collection of her greatest pieces to such a small, unknown institute? Screenings at 7 pm, 7:30 pm, 8 pm
