Please join us for our 128th Benefit Reception
Featuring Linda Moore, award winning author, gallerist and museum trustee
Linda Moore is the author of two award winning novels Attribution and Five Days in Bogotá and is a frequent speaker at museums, community events, and book clubs. Her novels draw upon her background as a gallery owner specializing in Hispanic art, a museum trustee and a traveler to over one hundred countries. She has studied at the University of California, Complutense University of Madrid, and Stanford University. Her gallery represented artists from Latin America, especially the southern cone of South America, Spain and California and exhibited at numerous juried art fairs including ARCO in Madrid, ArteBA in Buenos Aires, Art Chicago, Art Los Angeles and FIART in Bogotá.
Please join us for an inspiring evening as Linda gives us her perspective on how gallerists select their artists, women artists’ representation in museums, artists’ work that has been reattributed in museum collections, and persistent sexism in academia.
