I’ve been meaning to mention the wonderful children’s books written by Peggy Stone, the stories are about a runaway husky who is found in New York, and loves artworks.  You can buy them here.

Met’s New Admission Fee

For the first time in half a century, visitors to the world’s largest cultural institution, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will have to pay a mandatory admission fee of $25 if they do not live in New York State under a new policy that begins March 1, the museum announced on Thursday. (New York Times reported)

Daniel H. Weiss, Met’s new CEO, says in this interview that the “increase” of Met’s entry fees is due to the decrease of contributors and the failure of “pay-as-you-wish” policy:  Met Museum President Daniel Weiss Answers Questions About the New Admissions Policy

Even though I like the novelty of this honorable policy, I do not think it is very practical nowadays, specially for the arts and cultural institutions; which might differ in the next 10 to 15 years.  I also suspect that the questionable financial management of the last few years also influenced his decision.  Let’s hope this change can come as a big help for our so loved national treasure museum.

The Last Leonardo’s

I’m beyond excited about Christie’s forthcoming sale of the ‘Salvator Mundi’ by Leonardo (the last one). Some may not like the fact that Christie’s is marketing this picture as a  contemporary piece, but in my personal opinion Da Vinci’s work transcends time and movement and trying to make Old Masters relevant to new audiences is worth a shot.

The Borghese Gallery has announced its own formation of the Caravaggio Research Institute; with the help of some supporters the institute will home some of Caravaggio’s works and serve as an authentication and art-historical research study center. At a press conference, Galleria Borghese director Anna Coliva said the institute was formed “since the great specialists of Caravaggio are no longer here, anyone can decide to attribute a piece to the artist.”

The Borghese’s will also be hosting some international exhibition of the artist, the first one being at the Getty Museum opening on November 21, 2017, which I really, really and really would like to attend, so if you are in California or near by and able to go please send me an email letting me know how it went, I would appreciate it!  And if you like me are in the east coast don’t be jealous, we got Michelangelo at the Met.

If you, like me, are in e-commerce, one of our main concern is “public-domain” when using work of art images.  ALL of the paintings by the old Renaissance Masters are in the public domain; however, if you are using a photo of a painting, that photo may not be in public domain, even if it is in the internet, and sometimes those photos are protected by a copyright.

Thankfully, in the beginning of this year the Metropolitan Museum of art made its images freely available through New Open Access policy, making our lives a little easier, here is about the policy, and how to obtain those images: Images of Artworks in the Public Domain

Thomas Campbell, the met director, has resigned his post after 8 years.  There are rumours he was forced to do so after so many failures attempts and projects to improve met’s unstable financial condition.  In my opinion his plan to construct a $600 million wing for Modern and contemporary art was unnecessary, especially after Met Breuer was built.  I will miss him and his friendly smile, wish him the best!.
