Yes yes yes!! We say that we have the largest collection of Chuck Scalin works in the world and a smaller curated collection of Mim Golub pieces. As well as assorted works by other artists (our friends who we exchanged with over the years.) we don’t do lectures but we do tours, friends walk around the house, and artists’ talks (amongst ourselves.) our kids say we should price tags on everything. Hahaha
Those are the best kind of tours and audience - other artists! I love Chuck's work. Great stuff. I also always say I am the most important collector and world expert on the art of Cecil Touchon and a Government Certified Old Master (since I now get monthly social security checks) certified old at least.
Thanks for that! As someone whose home/studio is already a museum, I agree. My partner and I have often discussed this and feel it is probably the only way our work will be seen. We lack funds however to expand outside of our apartment.
Funds... That is the main problem I have been thinking about myself. Since I am my own #1 volunteer and contributor and serve as the total staff from director to janitor (with occasional help from my wife and kids), I can only ask so much of myself before interdepartmental grumbling starts.
