The Great Collectors

With Milton Esterow, Editor and Publisher of ARTnews

It’s not just billionaires throughout the world, but also collectors with much smaller bank accounts, who follow their hearts’ desire. Among the most well-known, however, are Nelson Rockefeller, Norton Simon, Charles Saatchi, Kenneth Clark, Stavros Niarchos, Emily Tremaine, Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza, Joseph Hirshhorn, Herbert and Dorothy Vogel, J. Paul Getty, and others. What makes a collector? And why do people collect everything from contemporary art and old masters to Oceanic art and antiquities?

Where: Metropolitan Museum of Art
