Selections from the Arnold and Sylvia Goldman Gifts Sat, Jun 13 2015 - Sun, Jan 3 2016 Arnold and Sylvia Goldman were members of an important generation of Twin Cities art collectors. The post-World War II years saw a boom in both art production and collection, and the center of the Western art world shifted from Paris to New York City. From the late 1940s into the 1960s, a multitude of new art galleries sprung up in the city and record numbers of young Americans studied art, many on G. I. bill support. The postwar years saw record sales, new art stars, and a battalion of new collectors ready and able to snatch up their share of the so-called “New American Art.” |
