Item Description
Friday May 16, 2013 - 10:00am
Tour the private FREDERICK R. WEISMAN ART FOUNDATION which is dedicated to continuing the legacy and vision of the late Frederick R. Weisman, an extraordinary entrepreneur, philanthropist, and art collector.
Following the tour, a gourmet lunch will be served at the home of Lisa Kalin and Drew Kugler.
Weisman held an uncompromising belief in the cultural value of art and understood the importance of both the individual artist and the creative process.
Frederick R. Weisman purchased the Bel Air estate to showcase his personal collection of 20th-Century art. He and his wife, Billie Milam Weisman, an art conservator and curator, worked together to create a unique environment located within the Mediterranean-style villa. Today, the Foundation estate, annex and surrounding gardens are made accessible to the public by appointment only on guided tours.
More than four hundred works of art are on display at the Foundation. The collection includes works by European Modernists including Cezanne, Picasso, and Kandinsky and Surrealist works by Ernst, Miro, and Magritte. Postwar art include works by Giacometti, Noguchi, Calder, Rauschenberg, and Johns; Abstract Expressionist paintings by de Kooning, Francis, Still, and Rothko; Color-Field paintings by Frankenthaler, Louis, and Noland; and Pop Art by Warhol, Lichtenstein, Oldenburg, and Rosenquist. Contemporary California artists include Ruscha and Goode, and Super Realist sculptures by Hanson and de Andrea.
Hosted by Lisa Kalin & Drew Kugler
