A LEGACY OF FRIENDSHIP: Hans Bechtler's Birthday Book |
Wednesday January 25, 2012
thru Monday April 16, 2012 |
 Bechtler family patriarch Hans Bechtler was a beloved patron and friend to many of the artists whose work he collected. Bestowed upon him for his 60th birthday in 1964 was a one-of-a-kind portfolio filled with artwork created specifically for Hans by several of these artists. This intimate show on the museum's second floor examines these unique birthday works, and reveals the close ties between the Bechtlers and museum collection artists.
