For art collector Herbert Vogel,
who reportedly died today
Philip Kennicott in The Washington Post , July 3, 2009—
"The Vogels help allay deep cultural fears
within the art world— fears that art is elitist,
or some kind of confidence game,
or not a serious endeavor (a fear that has
dogged art since at least the time of Plato)."
