Peggy Guggenheim By Alexadra Epps

Arts Society talk on Peggy Guggenheim

Not only was Peggy Guggenheim ahead of her time but she was the woman who helped define it. She discovered and nurtured a new generation of artists producing a new kind of art. Through collecting not only art but the artists themselves, her life was as radical as her collection.
