Preface 


The  National  Endowment  for  the  Arts  and  the  Institute  of  Museum  and  Li- 
brary Services  are  proud  to  support  this  ambitious  project  that  underscores 
the  remarkable  vision  of  two  people  committed  to  acquiring  and  sharing 
the  art  of  our  time.  The  generosity  shown  by  Herbert  and  Dorothy  Vogel 
in  their  eagerness  to  distribute  their  marvelous  collection  to  museums  in 
each  state  is  an  inspiring  testament  to  their  strong  sense  of  public  service. 
In  sharing  their  passion  for  material  that  represents  a  significant  period  of 
art  making  in  the  United  States,  the  Vogels  are  ensuring  that  people  who 
otherwise  might  have  limited  access  to  works  such  as  these  will  be  able  to 
see,  study,  and  enjoy  them.  The  National  Endowment  for  the  Arts  is  dedi- 
cated to  ensuring  greater  access  to  the  arts  for  all  citizens  of  this  country, 
and  the  Institute  of  Museum  and  Library  Services  provides  resources  that 
enable  our  nation's  museums  and  libraries  to  serve  their  communities  with 
quality  programs  and  collections.  What  better  way  to  promote  our  respec- 
tive missions  and  honor  two  patriotic  American  citizens  than  through  the 
catalogue  and  Web-based  learning  resource  for  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States.

VI  •  THE  DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  VOGEL  COLLECTION 


Foreword 


DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  VOGEL  have  been  extremely  generous  donors  to  the 
National  Gallery  of  Art  for  almost  two  decades.  Since  1991  the  Vogels  have  given 
or  designated  as  promised  gifts  approximately  1,100  drawings,  paintings,  sculptures, 
photographs,  prints,  and  illustrated  books.  Drawn  from  the  extraordinary  collection 
of  minimal,  conceptual,  and  post-minimal  art  they  have  been  assembling  for  more 
than  forty-five  years,  these  gifts  and  promised  gifts  are  an  essential  component  of  the 
National  Gallery's  holdings  of  contemporary  art.  Selections  from  the  Vogel  Collec- 
tion have  been  featured  in  two  special  exhibitions  at  the  National  Gallery:  From  Mini- 
mal to  Conceptual  Art:  Works  from  the  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection  (1994) 
and  Christo  and  Jeanne-Claude  in  the  Vogel  Collection  (2002).  Moreover  the  Vogels1 
gifts  play  an  important  role  in  our  permanent  collection  installations,  greatly  enrich- 
ing the  National  Gallery's  representation  of  the  art  of  our  time. 

Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  have  now  expanded  their  largesse  exponentially  by 
making  this  daring  and  varied  resource  available  not  only  to  vast  museum  audiences  in 
the  nation's  capital  but  as  well  to  museum  visitors  throughout  the  country.  Their  plan 
to  donate  fifty  works  from  their  collection  to  each  of  fifty  art  institutions  in  the  United 
States — The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States — evolved 
during  conversations  between  the  Vogels  and  Ruth  Fine,  the  National  Gallery's  cura- 
tor of  special  projects  in  modern  art.  Through  this  program,  the  Vogels  are  donating 
a  total  of  2,500  works  by  177  artists.  They  hope  their  gifts  will  significantly  enhance 
the  representation  of  contemporary  art  in  all  regions  of  the  country,  also  adding  to 
the  renown  of  those  artists  for  whose  work  they  have  a  deep  and  abiding  respect. 

Ruth  Fine  has  overseen  the  realization  of  the  Vogels'  massive  undertaking,  and 
Mary  Lee  Corlett,  research  associate  in  the  department  of  special  projects  in  modern 
art,  has  worked  tirelessly  on  all  of  its  organizational  aspects  with  assistance  from  de- 
partment colleague  Janet  Blyberg.  Molly  Donovan,  associate  curator  of  modern  and 
contemporary  art,  and  Judith  Brodie,  curator  of  modern  prints  and  drawings,  both 
have  long-standing  associations  with  the  Vogels  and  have  been  immensely  helpful  as 
work  has  progressed. 

We  are  associated  in  this  undertaking  with  our  colleagues  at  the  National  En- 

FIFTY   WORKS   FOR   FIFTY   STATES    •    vii 


dowment  for  the  Arts  (NEA)  and  the  Institute  of  Museum  and  Library  Services 
(IMLS),  whose  chairman  and  director,  Dana  Gioia  and  Anne-Imelda  Radice  respec- 
tively, have  joined  with  us  to  carry  out  the  Vogels'  dream.  Through  this  catalogue, 
supported  by  the  NEA,  and  the  Web  site  (www.vogel50x50.org),  supported  by  the 
IMLS,  the  collectors  are  able  simultaneously  to  keep  their  treasures  together  as  a 
shared  presence  and  make  them  accessible  to  widely  dispersed  audiences.  The  Dorothy 
and  Herbert  Vojjel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  initiative  is  a  model  of  donor 
generosity.  The  National  Gallery  of  Art  is  delighted  to  be  working  with  Dorothy  and 
Herbert  Vogel  in  placing  works  from  their  landmark  collection  in  museums  through- 
out the  country.

Vlll   •    THE   DOROTHY  AND   HERBERT  VOGEL   COLLECTION 


A  Word  from  Dorothy  Vogel 


WE  BEGAN  COLLECTING  VERY  EARLY  IN  OUR  MARRIAGE,  in  1962.  While 
Herb  had  an  art  background,  I  did  not,  and  I  learned  from  him.  In  fact,  my  first 
art  lesson  was  at  the  National  Gallery  of  Art  when  we  came  to  Washington  on  our 
honeymoon. 

In  1987  we  returned  to  the  National  Gallery  on  our  twenty-fifth  wedding 
anniversary,  and  we  looked  up  lack  Cowart,  the  National  Gallery's  head  of  twentieth- 
century  art  at  the  time.  It  was  because  of  him  we  gave  many  works  to  the  National 
Gallery  in  1991.  Since  then  we  have  had  two  exhibitions  there:  From  Minimal  to 
Conceptual  Art:  Works  from  the  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection  and  Christo  and 
Jeanne-Claude  in  the  Vogel  Collection.  Other  works  from  our  collection  frequently 
have  been  installed  as  part  of  the  museum's  permanent  collection. 

Over  these  several  years  when  our  works  were  being  catalogued  at  the  National 
Gallery,  it  became  apparent  that  the  collection  is  so  expansive  that  no  single  museum 
would  be  able  to  research  and  exhibit  all  of  it  to  its  full  potential.  In  order  for  more 
of  the  works  to  be  seen  and  for  the  many  facets  of  the  collection  to  be  most  fully  re- 
vealed, we  realized  that  it  would  have  to  be  divided  among  several  institutions.  With 
this  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  project,  we  can  bring  together  a  huge  portion  of  the 
collection.  Although  physically  the  works  will  be  in  fifty  locations,  there  is  the  added 
bonus  that  they  will  be  visible  to  many  people,  especially  those  who  cannot  travel. 
Hopefully  they  will  enjoy  the  experience  of  looking  at  these  works  from  our  collection 
and  will  be  inspired. 

Before  our  association  with  the  National  Gallery,  we  had  many  exhibitions  from 
our  collection  in  sixteen  states,  coast  to  coast,  and  four  foreign  countries.  Because  we 
have  experienced  the  pleasure  of  displaying  our  art  widely,  we  like  the  idea  of  continu- 
ing to  share  our  collection  throughout  the  United  States  this  way. 

While  this  book  gives  an  idea  of  the  number  of  artists  in  the  collection,  it  does 
not  reflect  the  depth  of  their  work,  and  not  all  of  our  artists  are  represented  in  the 
project.  The  related  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  Web  site  will  bring  together  informa- 
tion about  all  of  the  2,500  works  that  have  been  donated  to  museums  as  part  of  the 
project.  In  addition  to  other  works  that  we  have  given  to  the  National  Gallery  of  Art, 

FIFTY   WORKS    FOR    FIFTY   STATES    •    i\ 


we  still  have  art  at  home,  and  while  we  are  not  interested  in  adding  new  artists,  we 
are  still  collecting. 

We  want  to  thank  Earl  A  Powell  III,  director,  and  Alan  Shestack,  deputy  direc- 
tor of  the  National  Gallery,  for  their  support  of  this  project  from  the  very  beginning; 
Dana  Gioia,  chairman,  and  Robert  Frankel,  director,  museum  and  visual  arts,  of  the 
National  Endowment  for  the  Arts,  for  making  this  publication  possible;  Anne-Imelda 
Radice,  director,  and  Marsha  L.  Semmel,  deputy  director  for  museums  and  director 
for  strategic  partnerships,  of  the  Institute  of  Museum  and  Library  Services,  for  their 
support  of  the  shipping  and  transporting  of  the  works  being  given  to  the  fifty  institu- 
tions, as  well  as  the  related  Web  site. 

Our  thanks  also  go  to  Ruth  Fine,  National  Gallery  curator  of  special  projects 
in  modern  art,  who  had  the  idea  for  this  project,  for  all  she  has  done  to  execute  it. 
Mary  Lee  Corlett,  the  department's  research  associate,  has  attended  to  every  detail, 
undertaking  a  tremendous  amount  of  work  which  she  did  very  accurately  with  loving 
care.  Research  assistant  Janet  Blyberg  also  has  been  helpful  in  many  ways,  as  were  two 
summer  interns,  Edward  Puchner  and  Ted  Gioia.  We  also  thank  Elizabeth  A.  Croog, 
general  counsel  for  the  National  Gallery  of  Art;  Julian  Saenz,  on  her  staff;  and  Jane 
Gregory  Rubin,  our  long-time  lawyer  and  advisor,  for  overseeing  the  legal  aspects  of 
these  gifts. 

Others  at  the  National  Gallery  with  whom  we  personally  have  worked  on  the 
project  over  the  years  and  whom  we  would  like  to  thank  include  several  members  of 
the  conservation  staff,  especially  Jay  Krueger  (paintings),  but  also  Shelley  Sturman 
(objects),  Kimberly  Schenck  (drawings),  Connie  McCabe  (photographs),  Julia  Burke 
(textiles),  and  Hugh  Phibbs  (matting  and  framing);  in  the  registrar's  office,  Sally  Fre- 
itag,  and  Gary  Webber,  who  has  made  many  trips  to  our  New  York  apartment  to  help 
transfer  our  works  to  Washington.  Lyle  Peterzell  did  the  extraordinary  photography 
for  this  catalogue,  and  we  appreciate  his  enthusiasm  for  working  on  the  project.  The 
many  other  people  at  the  National  Gallery  who  contributed  to  the  success  of  The 
Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  project  are  noted  in 
Mr.  Powell's  foreword  to  this  book  and  Ms.  Fine's  acknowledgments. 

Most  importantly,  Herb  and  I  want  to  dedicate  this  book  to  all  the  artists  whose 
generosity  and  encouragement  enabled  us  to  assemble  this  collection.  It  is  with  great 
pride  and  pleasure  that  we  give  their  works  from  our  collection  to  fifty  museums 
throughout  the  United  States.

Acknowledgments 


THE  DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  VOGEL  COLLECTION:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty 
States  project  has  evolved  over  several  years  and  has  drawn  an  enormous  number  of 
participants  into  its  fold.  Our  greatest  appreciation  is  to  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel, 
for  their  generosity  in  sharing  their  collection  with  museum-goers  throughout  the 
United  States,  and  for  sharing  their  memories,  their  knowledge,  their  friendship,  and 
their  collection  with  all  of  us  at  the  National  Gallery  of  Art. 

We  are  likewise  indebted  to  the  177  artists  whose  works  are  included  in  the 
gifts  documented  in  this  book.  We  are  grateful  to  them  for  their  creativity  and  for 
their  generosity  in  taking  the  time  to  respond  to  our  inquiries  about  their  art.  We  owe 
extended  thanks  to  those  who  were  called  upon  many  times,  especially  Edda  Renouf, 
Pat  Steir,  and  Richard  Tuttle.  We  also  thank  the  artists'  dealers,  estate  overseers,  and 
other  representatives  for  information  they  have  provided  to  us. 

At  the  National  Endowment  for  the  Arts,  Chairman  Dana  Gioia  suggested  the 
creation  of  this  book.  His  imagination  and  encouragement  added  greatly  to  the  over- 
all success  of  the  project,  as  did  the  support  of  Robert  Frankel,  director  of  museums 
and  visual  arts;  Karen  Elias,  acting  general  counsel;  and  Don  Ball,  editor.  At  the  In- 
stitute of  Museum  and  Library  Services  (IMLS),  Anne-Imelda  Radice,  director,  and 
Marsha  Semmel,  deputy  director  for  museums  and  director  for  strategic  partnerships, 
expanded  the  scope  of  the  project  to  include  a  groundbreaking  Web  site.  We  appreci- 
ate their  creative  input  along  the  way,  as  well  as  the  contributions  of  Nancy  Weiss, 
IMLS  general  counsel. 

At  the  National  Gallery  of  Art,  we  are  grateful  to  Earl  A.  Powell  III,  director; 
Alan  Shestack,  deputy  director;  Elizabeth  A.  Croog,  secretary  and  general  counsel, 
and  lulian  Saenz,  associate  general  counsel;  and  Dave  Rada,  comptroller  in  the  trea- 
surer's office.  I  am  immensely  grateful  to  two  of  my  departmental  colleagues,  Mary 
Lee  Corlett,  who  facilitated  every  aspect  of  this  immense  project  with  constant  dedi- 
cation and  grace;  and  Janet  Blyberg,  who  was  called  upon  frequently  to  assist  with  a 
wide  variety  of  tasks.  Curatorial  colleagues  Judith  Brodie,  Carlotta  Owens,  Charles 
Ritchie,  and  Amy  Johnston  in  the  department  of  modern  prints  and  drawings,  and 
Molly  Donovan,  Veronica  Betancourt,  and  Jennifer  Roberts  in  the  department  of 

FIFTY  WORKS   FOR   FIFTY   STATES    •    XI 


modern  and  contemporary  art  worked  with  us  at  every  stage  of  this  project. 

For  sharing  their  expertise  in  preservation  and  conservation,  we  thank  Hugh 
Phibbs,  Jay  Krueger,  Kimberly  Schenk,  Marian  Dirda,  Connie  McCabe,  Katy  May, 
and  Simona  Cristanetti.  Sally  Freitag,  chief  registrar,  has  provided  crucial  assistance, 
along  with  her  extraordinary  staff  of  registrars  and  art  handlers,  particularly  Susan 
Finkel,  whose  support  in  the  form  of  computer  searches  and  downloads  was  invalu- 
able, Lehua  Fisher,  and  Gary  Webber.  We  also  thank  Anne  Halpern,  in  the  depart- 
ment of  curatorial  records,  whose  assistance  has  also  been  immensely  helpful. 

In  the  department  of  imaging  and  visual  services  we  are  grateful  to  Alan  New- 
man and  his  staff,  including  Robert  Grove,  Lorene  Emerson,  Peter  Dueker,  Katherine 
Mayo,  and  Lyle  Peterzell,  who  returned  to  the  National  Gallery  for  two  months  to 
photograph  works  in  the  Vogel  Collection  for  this  catalogue  and  for  use  in  the  Web 
site  developed  for  the  project  (www.vogel50x50.org),  for  which  oversight  we  are 
grateful  to  Joanna  Champagne  and  John  Gordy  in  the  publishing  and  Web  office. 
Judy  Metro,  editor  in  chief,  has  likewise  been  extremely  helpful  in  our  work,  as  has 
Nancy  Deiss  in  the  deputy  director's  office. 

And  for  their  advice  and  assistance  in  all  matters  related  to  The  Dorothy  and 
Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States,  we  are  grateful  to  the  National 
Gallery's  chief  information  officer,  Deborah  Ziska,  as  well  as  staff  members  Anabeth 
Guthrie  and  Steve  IConick. 

Former  National  Gallery  of  Art  colleagues  Jack  Cowart  and  Laura  Coyle  of- 
fered memories  that  have  aided  our  work,  for  which  we  are  most  appreciative.

THE  RENOWNED  ART  COLLECTION  assembled  since  1962  by  Dorothy  and 
Herbert  Vogel  has  been  called  "one  of  the  most  remarkable  American  collections 
formed  in  [the  twentieth]  century,  one  that  covers  most  of  the  important  develop- 
ments in  contemporary  art."2  Two  civil  servants  by  profession  with  no  independent 
financial  means,  the  Vogels  have  acquired  some  four  thousand  objects,  primarily 
drawings.  In  the  early  years  of  their  collecting  journey,  the  Vogels  provided  moral  and 
modest  financial  support  to  a  number  of  relatively  unknown  artists  who  subsequently 
would  receive  international  acclaim.  Among  them  are  Robert  Barry  (plates  101  and 
113),  Sol  LeWitt  (plate  186),  Edda  Renouf  (plates  56  and  128),  and  Richard  Tuttle 
(plates  4,  28,  38,  72,  and  124),  with  all  of  whom  the  Vogels  became  close  friends.  By 
the  1970s,  when  the  work  of  these  and  other  artists  represented  in  the  Vogel  Collec- 
tion became  widely  exhibited  and  recognized  by  the  international  art  press,  Dorothy 
and  Herbert  likewise  were  acknowledged  for  their  early,  prescient  attention  to  their 
work.  v 

As  is  the  case  for  many  collectors,  the  Vogels  started  with  no  intention  of  build- 
ing "a  collection"  per  se,  but  rather  to  acquire  works  they  admired,  with  which  they 
wanted  to  live.  The  art  community's  awareness  of  the  limited  funds  the  couple  could 
devote  to  these  acquisitions  brought  the  Vogels  considerable  admiration,  as  did  their 
enthusiastic  response  to  a  range  of  contemporary  practices,  which  included  work  many 
collectors  found  difficult  to  appreciate — new  forms  employing  non-traditional  materi- 
als such  as  latex,  string,  and  Styrofoam.  Most  frequently  referred  to  as  collectors  of 
minimal  and  conceptual  art,  the  Vogels  have  always  had  a  more  expansive  reach.  They

collected  art  rooted  in  abstract  expressionism,  as  exemplified  by  Michael  Goldberg 
(plates  83  and  194)  and  Charles  Clough  (plates  73  and  133);  innovative  post-mini- 
malist approaches,  as  seen  in  the  art  of  Richard  Francisco  (plates  10  and  182)  and  Pat 
Steir  (plates  48  and  67);  and  diverse  figurative  directions,  such  as  that  embraced  by 
Will  Barnet  (plates  57  and  165)  and  Mark  Kostabe  (plate  87),  among  others. 

Since  1975  a  dozen  exhibitions  featuring  various  aspects  of  the  Vogel  Collection 
have  been  organized.  They  are  documented  in  the  catalogues  that  are  recorded  in  this 
volume's  bibliography.  These  exhibitions  generated  interest  from  several  museums, 
eventually  prodding  the  couple  to  give  form  to  their  long-standing  intention  to  place 
their  treasures  in  a  public  institution.  In  1992  the  National  Gallery  of  Art  (NGA)  in 
Washington,  DC,  announced  an  agreement  with  the  Vogels  that  established  the  gal- 
lery's stewardship  of  their  collection.  Since  that  date  1,100  paintings,  objects,  draw- 
ings, photographs,  prints,  and  illustrated  books  have  entered  the  NGA  collection  or 
have  been  designated  as  promised  gifts.  During  this  same  period,  owing  to  the  Vogels 
ongoing  purchases  and  the  gifts  they  receive  from  artists,  their  collection  has  doubled 
in  size  from  some  2,400  works  originally  brought  to  Washington,  already  too  many 
to  be  reasonably  placed  in  any  one  institution,  to  approximately  4,000  objects.  Thus 
the  Vogels  have  worked  closely  with  NGA  staff  to  develop  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert 
Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States,  a  program  to  facilitate  gifts  of  fifty  works 
to  one  museum  in  each  of  the  fifty  United  States.3  The  project  has  received  essential 
support  from  the  National  Endowment  for  the  Arts  and  the  Institute  of  Museum  and 
Library  Services. 

SHAPING  THE  COLLECTION 

In  January  1962,  twenty-six-year-old  Dorothy  Faye  Hoffman  married  Herbert  Vo- 
gel, thirteen  years  her  senior  (figure  1).  The  small  synagogue  ceremony  took  place 
in  Dorothy's  home  town  of  Elmira,  New  York,  where  her  father  was  a  stationary 
merchant  and  her  mother,  by  then  deceased,  had  been  a  homemaker.  The  bride  had 
no  particular  interest  in  the  visual  arts,  but  rather  was  focused  on  classical  music  and 
theater.  To  this  day  the  living  stage  remains  a  high  priority  for  her,  and,  on  most 
Wednesday  afternoons  from  September  through  June,  Dorothy  is  to  be  found  in  the 
vicinity  of  42nd  and  Broadway  attending  a  matinee.  Other  ongoing  interests  include 
watching  ice  skating  and  reading  fiction,  especially  mysteries.  By  contrast,  Herbert's 
deep  immersion  in  painting  and  drawing  already  was  in  place  at  the  time  of  their  mar-

riage.  According  to  Dorothy,  "art  is  Herby's  only  interest,  except  for  animals."4  He 
immediately  set  out  to  share  these  twin  passions  with  his  new  wife.  She  was  an  eager 
participant. 

His  father  a  tailor,  his  mother  a  homemaker,  Herbert  Vogel  (Herb  to  most 
of  his  friends)  had  grown  up  in  Harlem,  on  100th  Street  between  5th  and  Madison 
Avenues,  and  later  on  105th  Street.  As  an  adult,  he  clerked  for  the  United  States 
Postal  Service,  assigned  to  several  different  Manhattan  branches  until  he  retired  in 
1979.  Starting  in  the  mid-1950s  Herb  also  took  classes  in  art  history  at  the  New  York 
University  (NYU)  Institute  of  Fine  Arts.  Among  his  teachers  were  Max  Friedlander, 
Robert  Goldwater,  and  Erwin  Panofsky.  These  brilliant  scholars  provided  him  a  his- 
torical framework  for  the  art-based  adventure  he  and  Dorothy  began  during  their 
honeymoon  in  Washington,  DC,  where  the  National  Gallery  of  Art  became  the  set- 
ting for  her  introduction  to  old  master  paintings. 

Before  his  marriage,  Herb  had  frequented  the  early  havens  of  the  so-called 
abstract  expressionists,  including  Greenwich  Village's  Cedar  Tavern  and  the  artists' 
club,  and  he  also  had  journeyed  to  the  Provincetown,  Massachusetts,  artists'  com- 
munity.  He  still  speaks  with  special  warmth  about  his  association  with  Franz  Kline 
and  David  Smith.  By  the  close  of  the  fifties,  Herb  was  painting  nights  and  weekends 
in  a  work  space  he  set  up  in  the  Bronx  apartment  where  he  was  living  in  1960  when 
he  met  Dorothy,  a  librarian  for  the  Brooklyn  Public  Library  system  with  bachelor's 
and  master's  degrees  in  library  science  from  Syracuse  University  and  the  University  of 
Denver  respectively.5  (She  retired  in  1990.) 

Dorothy's  association  with  Herb  introduced  her  to  the  practice  of  painting  as 
well  as  the  study  of  art  history.  Shortly  after  their  marriage,  the  couple  rented  a  stu- 
dio at  41  Union  Square,  and  Dorothy,  like  Herb,  took  weekly  painting  and  drawing 
classes  at  NYU.  After  work  and  on  weekends  they  developed  their  budding  talents  as 
abstract  painters.  Dorothy's  hard-edged  style  presented  a  strong  contrast  to  Herb's 
colorful  expressionism.  In  addition  to  the  time  in  their  studio,  they  devoted  part  of 
each  weekend  to  prowling  New  York  art  galleries,  then  a  far  smaller  world  than  now. 
Dorothy  stated, "It  was  57th  Street,  and  then  up  Madison  and  the  70s,  mainly."" 
They  started  with  visits  to  venues  that  had  been  established  by  the  end  of  the  1950s, 
including  Grace  Borgenicht,  Sidney  Janis,  Tibor  de  Nag)',  Betty  Parsons  (an  artist 
herself  [see  plate  16]),  Poindexter,  Stable,  and  Zabriskie.  But  they  quickly  expanded 
their  range  and  kept  abreast  of  shows  at  Bykert,  Leo  Castelli,  Paula  Cooper,  Virginia

"In  the  beginning  it  was  more  looking  than  buying,"  Dorothy  remembered.  "I  was 
just  learning  and  Herby  was  the  one  who  thought  of  perhaps  buying."8  They  occa- 
sionally visit  galleries  today,  but  for  the  past  decade  the  Vogels  have  tended  to  learn 
about  new  art  and  artists  directly  from  artist  friends. 

Herb  made  a  few  art  purchases  before  he  married  Dorothy,  among  the  earliest 
of  which  was  an  untitled  painted  wood  wall  piece  by  Giuseppi  Napoli  (plate  167).  To 
celebrate  their  engagement  the  Vogels  jointly  selected  one  of  Pablo  Picasso's  ceramic 
vases;  and  their  initial  purchase  as  a  married  couple,  just  one  month  after  the  event,  was 
an  untitled  crushed-car  metal  sculpture  by  John  Chamberlain  (figure  2),  now  in  the  Na- 
tional Gallery  of  Art's  collection.9  Its  selection  marked  Dorothy's  first  visit  to  an  artist's 
studio.  Chamberlain  was  far  less  well  known  than  he  subsequently  would  become,  and 
in  1975  Suzanne  Delehanty,  then  director  of  Philadelphia's  Institute  of  Contemporary

Art  (ICA),  applauded  this  as  a  most  daring  acquisition  for  so  early  a  date.10  The  Vogels 
installed  their  few  purchases  and  Herb's  paintings  in  the  living  room  of  what  had  been 
Dorothy's  Brooklyn  apartment,  into  which  Herb  settled  after  their  marriage. 

Within  a  year,  the  couple  moved  across  the  East  River  to  an  interim  Manhattan 
space,  and  by  the  close  of  1963  they  were  living  in  the  Upper  East  Side  one-bedroom 
apartment  they  inhabit  to  this  day.  Two  months  into  their  marriage 
they  adopted  their  first  cat,  and  since  have  shared  their  lives  with  as 
many  as  seven  exotic  breeds  simultaneously,  including  flame  point  Hi- 
malayan, Siamese,  Manx,  Abyssinian,  and  Rex.  (See  John  Salt's  Un- 
titled (Vogel  Livinjj  Room  Drawn  from  Memory),  1972,  plate  140.) 
Several  of  the  cats  have  been  named  for  nineteenth-  and  twentieth  - 
century  artists  such  as  Cezanne,  Renoir,  and  Whistler,  because  either 
the  cat's  appearance  or  personality  reminded  the  Vogels  of  its  name- 
sake's work.  Their  menagerie  over  the  years  also  has  included  some  twenty  turtles 
from  around  the  world  and  a  diverse  community  of  tropical  fish  (figure  3). 

From  the  start,  the  Vogels  were  committed  to  having  art  function  as  an  active 
and  engaging  presence  in  their  lives:  "We  had  a  lot  of  flexibility  and  we  didn't  buy  a 
lot  of  big  furniture  that  would  interfere  with  the  collection.  We  did  not  buy,  for  in- 
stance, mirrors  [to]  compete  with  the  art  work."11  Their  furniture  consisted  of  multi- 
purpose pieces,  such  as  a  sofa  constructed  of  flat  wooden  panels  on  and  against  which 
pillows  would  be  arranged  for  seating.  These  horizontal  and  vertical  panels  also  could 
function  as  tables  and  backdrops,  respectively,  for  small  sculpture;  and  a  narrow  shelf 
atop  the  headboard  of  their  bed  was  similarly  employed  (figure  4).  Their  apartment 
essentially  became  an  art  gallery,  with  one  wall  each  devoted  to  Dorothy  and  Herb's 
abstract  paintings.  According  to  Dorothy,  "our  obsession  was  really  our  own  work, 
in  addition  to  having  our  jobs.  And  then  we  just  started  buying  other  artists'  work.... 
I  think  I  got  more  enthused  about  collecting  than  I  was  about  painting....  And  you 
know,  collecting  is  not  easy,  it's  a  lot  of  hard  work,  too."12 

After  about  three  years  of  dividing  their  weekends  between  studio  work  and 
gallery  visits,  Dorothy  and  Herb  realized  that  practicing  art  required  more  substantial 
dedication  and  time  than  they  cared  to  commit.  They  also  were  finding  more  im- 
mediate pleasure  and  long-term  gratification  in  the  hours  they  spent  looking  at  other 
artists'  work  than  in  those  they  devoted  to  creating  their  own.  So  in  1965  the  Vogels 
gave  up  the  Union  Square  studio  and  began  "[to  put]  together,  through  passion  and

trust  in  their  own  judgment,  an  extraordinary  collection,"  to  quote  the  artist  Richard 
Nonas  (plates  148  and  176).13 

Herb's  salary  (and  subsequently  his  pension)  served  as  the  couple's  resource  for 
art  acquisitions,  and  Dorothy's  was  directed  to  more  pedestrian  living  expenses  like 
rent,  subway  fare,  and  food.  She  recendy  commented  that  "I  paid  the  bills  and  Herby 
was  the  mad  collector  who  bought  the  art."14  Their  limited  means  and  space  mandated 
parameters  for  what  they  would  buy.  They  learned  a  crushing  lesson  early:  having  ac- 
quired a  vertical  sculpture  by  Sol  LeWitt,  they  discovered  it  was  too  tall  to  stand  in  their 
living  room.  They  subsequendy  exchanged  it  for  a  horizontal  piece,  Floor  Structure 
Black,  1965. 15  And  LeWitt  made  a  smaller  version  of  the  vertical  work  for  them.  Draw- 
ings soon  became  the  Vogels'  focus,  eventually  making  up  approximately  three-quarters 
of  their  collection,  which  in  great  measure  is  "a  record  of  ideas  rather  than  an  assembly 
of  objects,"  as  it  includes  many  studies  for  large  scale  and  environmental  works.16 

When  the  Vogels  started  their  journey  they  were  part  of  a  relatively  small  com- 
munity of  people  interested  in  looking  at  and  collecting  contemporary  art,  but  the 
number  of  participants  has  grown  radically  since  1962.  This  becomes  evident  when 
comparing  the  occurrence  of  international  art  expositions  now  with  then  (when  the 


6  •  THE  DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  V0GEL  COLLECTION 


Venice  Biennale  was  one  of  very  few);  and  by  considering  the  expanding  number  of 
art  journals  over  these  years,  as  well  as  the  increase  in  their  listings  for  galleries  and  for 
exhibition  reviews.  (The  two  journals  Herb  has  consistently  read  are  Art  News  and 
Art  in  America.)  A  primary  signifier  of  the  Vogels'  prescience  as  collectors  is  their  ear- 
ly passion  for  drawings,  which  were  of  considerably  less  interest  to  the  collecting  com- 
munity in  1962  than  now.  But  even  today  drawings  tend  to  appeal  to  a  particular  kind 
of  collector  only — one  who  prizes  the  intellectual  challenges  and  visceral  pleasures 
possible  at  the  origins  of  the  artistic  process  over  a  more  finished  presentation.17 

Given  their  essential  focus  on  drawings,  the  Vogels  have  nonetheless  tried  to 
acquire  examples  of  every  aspect  of  "their"  artists'  practices,  works  that  reveal  develop- 
ment over  time.  Martin  Johnson's  art,  for  example,  is  represented  in  the  collection  by 
paintings,  sculptures,  and  works  on  paper  that  incorporate  collage  and  photography 
(plates  86  and  142).  And  according  to  Barry,  "looking  through  the  things  [the  Vogels 
have]  purchased  over  the  years  gives  a  sense  of  the  way  my  work  has  developed. . . .  They 
have  many  smaller,  more  intimate  pieces — the  personal  things  artists  don't  always  show 
in  a  gallery.  I  like  that  quality  and  that  sense  of  adventure....  I  remember  Sol  LeWitt 
saying  to  me,  T  think  [the  Vogels]  have  the  best  collection  in  the  country.'"18 

The  Vogels  credit  the  directions  in  which  their  collection  moved  to  their  friend- 
ships with  artists,  in  particular  Dan  Graham  (plate  98)  and  LeWitt.  For  approximately 
one  year  around  1965,  Graham  managed  the  Daniels  Gallery  which  Dorothy  and 
Herb  frequented  to  look  at  art  and  also  to  engage  in  conversation.  Subsequent  to 
the  gallery's  closing,  the  Vogels  and  Graham  continued  to  get  together,  often  sharing 
dinner.  The  essential  subject  of  their  discussions  was  the  emergence  of  new  art  forms, 
especially  the  work  of  Donald  Judd  and  Robert  Morris.  When  the  Vogels  decided  to 
purchase  a  LeWitt  sculpture  after  the  closing  of  his  first  solo  show,  held  at  Daniels  in 
1965,  the  gallery  was  about  to  cease  operation.  So  Graham  suggested  they  contact  the 
artist  and  conduct  the  transaction  directly,  which  they  did.  LeWitt  had  met  Herb  be- 
fore, "in  the  late  fifties.  [He]  was  painting  at  the  time.  He  was  interested  in  seeing  my 
work,  so  I  invited  him  to  my  studio.  He  was  then  as  he  is  now — enthusiastic. M19  The 
friendship  thrived  and,  during  the  last  decades  of  Le Witt's  life,  he  and  Herb  spoke  by 
telephone  virtually  every  Saturday  morning,  except  when  the  artist  was  abroad.  Simi- 
larly Herb  has  maintained  frequent  contact,  often  by  telephone,  with  several  other 
artists,  especially  Tuttle  (figure  5).  The  couple's  collection  of  his  art  is  unparalleled.20 

The  Vogels  had  purchased  a  painting  by  Will  Insley  (plate  37)  from  the  Stable

Gallery  shortly  before  the  LeWitt  acquisition,  but  their  serious  collecting  started  with 
that  August  1965  studio  purchase,  which  also  was  LeWitt's  first  sale  of  his  art.21  He 
delivered  the  sculpture  to  the  Vogels'  apartment  with  the  help  of  his  artist  friend, 
Robert  Mangold  (plate  31),  who  owned  an  automobile.  Shortly  thereafter  he  and 
Sylvia  Plimack  Mangold  (plate  170)  would  be  counted  among  the  Vogels's  growing 
community  of  artist  friends. 

Dorothy  and  Herb  love  to  talk  directly  with  artists,  and  they  often  reiterate 
how  these  conversations  are  essential  not  only  to  their  understanding  of  individu- 
als' oeuvres,  but  also  to  the  expansion  of  their  broader  aesthetic  appreciation  and 
knowledge  of  the  field.  An  avid  collector  himself,  LeWitt's  interests,  like  Graham's, 
were  immensely  influential  on  the  Vogels,  who  always  responded  to  his  suggestions 
of  exhibitions  they  should  see.  An  important  one  was  Seth  Siegelaub's  now  legendary

•  THE  DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  VOGEL  COLLECTION 


"January  Show,"  where  they  first  encountered  the  work  of  Barry,  Douglas  Heubler, 
Joseph  Kosuth,  and  Lawrence  Weiner  (plate  12 ).22 

At  the  start  of  the  seventies  the  Vogels  gave  up  European  travel  to  enlarge 
their  art-buying  budget.23  They  were  being  invited  to  virtually  every  contemporary 
art  opening  at  New  York  galleries  and  to  important  museum  celebrations  as  well. 
Always  together  and  notably  small  in  stature  (both  barely  reach  five  feet  tall),  the 
Vogels  were  recognizable  and  stood  out  in  any  crowd.  At  times  Herb  delighted  "in 
showing  up  at  openings  exuberently  'clashed,'  as  he  puts  it,  in  plaid  pants  and  a 
houndstooth  overcoat."24  Now  that  Dorothy  is  in  her  early  seventies  and  Herb  in  his 
mid-eighties,  they  have  slowed  down  somewhat,  but  in  their  heyday  of  some  thirty- 
five  years,  they  went  to  as  many  as  twenty-five  shows  a  week,  where  they  would  often 
encounter  artists. 

It  is  common  for  artists  to  work  in  galleries  to  support  their  creative  work  early 
in  their  careers,  and  in  addition  to  Graham  at  Daniels,  the  Vogels  met  Lynda  Benglis 
(plates  65  and  85)  when  she  was  working  at  Bykert,  and  William  McWillie  Chambers 
(plate  129)  and  Peggy  Cyphers  (plate  158)  when  they  worked  for  Grace  Borgenicht 
and  John  Weber,  respectively.  Following  LeWitt,  it  became  commonplace  for  artists 
to  introduce  their  artist  friends  to  these  enthusiastic  collectors;  and  the  Vogels,  of 
course,  would  be  eager  to  make  studio  visits  to  those  artists  whose  work  they  knew 
and  admired.25  Years  after  they  met  Nonas  at  his  1971  show  at  1 12  Green  Street,  an 
alternative  exhibition  space,  the  artist  reported  that  "[Herb]  comes  to  visit  me  once 
a  month,  he's  consistent.  The  collection  is  a  real  commitment  for  them,  the  works 
are  their  children,  their  pride."  Nonas  also  mentioned  the  Vogels'  comments  as  early 
as  1981  about  placing  their  art  in  a  public  institution;  he  thus  viewed  his  presence  in 
the  collection  as  "a  big  responsibility...  [part  of]  a  record  of  American  art  during  these 
twenty  years."26 

The  Vogels  have  focused  on  artists  working  in  New  York  City,  where  studio 
visits  could  be  an  essential  part  of  their  collecting  experience.27  European  and  Ameri- 
can artists  living  elsewhere  that  are  represented  in  the  collection  generally  visited  New 
York  (or  were  briefly  based  there),  met  the  Vogels  and  saw  their  collection,  and  subse- 
quently brought  work  to  show  them.  In  addition  to  buying  works  directly  from  artists 
and  galleries,  the  Vogels  often  bid  at  benefit  auctions  supporting  chanties,  political 
causes,  and  arts  organizations. 

Not  intending  to  make  a  political  statement  of  any  kind,  but  by  buying  art  they

admire  Dorothy  and  Herb  have  assembled  an  impressive  collection  of  art  by  women.28 
Edda  Renouf  and  Pat  Steir,  both  of  whose  work  the  couple  collects  in  depth,  have 
spoken  enthusiastically  about  their  studio  visits,  and  the  strength,  in  particular,  of 
Herb's  "eye."  Renouf  described  first  looking  at  her  paintings  with  them  in  the  1970s 
this  way:  "They  took  their  time... looking  at  my  works  with  full  attention  [which  was] 
very  inspiring  to  me  and  the  beginning  of  our  long-lasting  friendship  based  above  all 
on  our  mutual  devotion  and  understanding  of  art."29  Steir  (figure  6),  who  also  met 
the  Vogels  in  the  1970s,  recently  commented  that  for  them  collecting  "became  much 
more  than  a  hobby,  it  is  a  profession.  It  is  extraordinary  they  could  see  so  well."30 

The  couple  has,  together,  chosen  everything  in  the  collection  apart  from  art- 
ists' gifts  and  occasional  exceptions  when  Herb  (the  more  inveterate  studio  visitor) 
selects  a  work  in  Dorothy's  absence.  Their  judgment  is  complementary,  each  agreeing 
that  the  other  is  better  at  selecting  a  particular  kind  of  art.  As  they  describe  it,  the 
breakdown  reflects  their  youthful  painting  styles:  Herb  is  in  the  forefront  when  select- 
ing more  flamboyant  post-minimalist  art,  for  example  by  Lucio  Pozzi  (plates  54  and 
123),  with  Dorothy  more  keen  when  considering  work  of  a  conceptual  and  minimal 
orientation,  especially  by  LeWitt. 

Dorothy's  librarian  background  undoubtedly  nourishes  her  commitment  to 
maintaining  documentary  files  on  artists  represented  in  the  collection  (and  many  who 
are  not).  She  assiduously  collects  and  organizes  exhibition  announcements  and  clips 
journal  and  newspaper  articles,  including  solo  and  group  show  reviews.  Housed  at

the  Archives  of  American  Art  (AAA)  in  Washington,  DC,  this  rich  resource  is  pep- 
pered with  personal  correspondence. 31  And  in  addition  to  postcards  enhanced  with 
sketches  that  have  been  accessioned  by  the  NGA,  the  rest  of  the  Vogels'  postcards 
from  artists  are  housed  in  the  NGA  Archives  and  currently  number  approximately 
160  pieces,  many  of  which  likewise  are  annotated  with  drawings. 

Dorothy  and  Herb's  1981  "Collection  of  Thoughts  on  the  Vogel  Collection" 
in  the  4x  7  Selections  from  the  Vogel  Collection  exhibition  catalogue  beautifully  articu- 
lates how  the  couple's  lives  are  defined  by  their  collecting: 

Collecting  is  not  just  buying  art  works  but  it  is  also  the  whole  experience 
of  being  part  of  the  art  world.  It  means  going  to  artists'  studios,  openings, 
galleries,  and  museums,  and  seeing,  reading,  talking,  and  thinking  about  art 
every  spare  moment  of  the  day.  It  means  rushing  through  dinner  to  go  to  an 
opening,  continually  filling  out  loan  forms,  clipping  articles  from  newspapers 
and  magazines  for  our  archives,  constantly  meeting  new  people,  strangers 
stopping  us  in  the  street  because  we  met  them  years  ago  at  a  lecture  or  an 
opening,  missing  a  movie  or  a  play  because  there  is  no  time,  getting  up  early 
on  Sunday  morning  because  there  is  no  time,  and  having  to  schedule  super- 
market visits  or  else  we  would  have  no  food  in  the  house.  Our  life  is  indeed 
hectic,  but  we  love  it.  We  are  constantly  seeking  new  art  and  artists  and  have 
so  far  been  able  to  find  and  collect  it....  It  is  most  gratifying  to  be  a  part  of 
the  art  world  of  our  time,  to  inspire  some  artists,  collectors  and  curators.32 

THE  COLLECTION  GOES  PUBLIC 

Around  1970,  increasing  numbers  of  artists  started  asking  the  Vogels  to  see  the  col- 
lection. Renouf  remembered  that  "it  was  immediately  clear  to  me  that  for  the  Vogels, 
their  apartment  was  not  only  for  them  to  live  in;  it  was  for  housing  what  was  most 
essential  and  important  in  their  lives — the  art  works.33  Once  people  started  visiting 
them  to  see  the  collection,  they  would  tell  others,  so  within  a  very  short  period  of 
time,  there  were  many  visitors,  who  might  join  the  Vogels  for  dinner,  first  at  home, 
and  then  at  local  German  or  Chinese  restaurants. 

Knowledge  of  the  collection  quickly  spread,  leading  to  visits  from  internation- 
al museum  professionals — from  Europe  at  first,  particularly  Belgium,  Germany,  and 
Holland.  "When  curators  come  from  Europe  they  visit  the  Museum  of  Modern  Art, 
the  Whitney,  and  the  Vogels'  apartment,"  Nonas  reported.34  Despite  this  interest  from 
foreign  curators,  apart  from  individual  works,  the  Vogel  Collection  was  not  exhibited 
abroad  until  1987  when  Beyond  the  Picture:  Works  by  Robert  Barry,  Sol  LcWitt,  Rob-

opened  at  the  Kunsthalle,  Bielefeld,  Germany.  On  this  side  of  the  Adantic,  however,  the 
collection  was  brought  to  public  view  more  than  a  decade  earlier. 

From  mid-April  through  mid-May  1975,  the  first  Vogel  Collection  exhibition 
was  installed  in  Manhattan  at  The  Clocktower  gallery  (figure  7).  Selections  from  the 
Collection  of  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  initiated  a  Collectors  of  the  Seventies  series  at 
this  SoHo  exhibition  space  sponsored  by  the  Institute  for  Art  and  Urban  Resources.35 
According  to  the  accompanying  catalogue,  the  show  was  selected  and  installed  by 
Dorothy  and  Herb.  It  focused  on  the  minimal  and  conceptual  aspects  of  the  col- 
lection and  included  one  work  by  each  of  forty-two  artists,  among  them  Stephen 
Antonakos  (plates  49  and  185),  David  Rabinowitch  (plate  55),  and  Ruth  Vollmer

(plate  104).  A  statement  by  Alanna  Heiss,  the  institute's  president,  referred  to  the 
Vogels  as  "underground  figures  in  the  New  York  art  world  for  years  [who]  have 
been  collecting  brilliantly  and  obsessively  since  1962. "36  Later  that  year,  a  larger  but 
similarly  focused  show,  Painting,  Drawing  and  Sculpture  of  the  '60s  and  the  '70s  from 
the  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection,  organized  by  Philadelphia's  ICA,  included 
more  than  200  of  approximately  500  works  then  in  the  collection.  Delehanty  praised 
the  collection  in  the  catalogue  as  "an  excellent  educational  resource  for  the  study  of 
aesthetic  activities  during  the  last  decade."  And  in  a  April  21,  1975  letter  to  the  Vo- 
gels, Jack  Boulton,  director  of  the  Contemporary  Arts  Center  in  Cincinnati,  Ohio, 
to  which  the  ICA  show  traveled,  praised  them  for  exemplary  "scholarly  stewardship 
toward  building  a  collection."37 

In  an  effort  to  correct  the  already  commonly  held  misconception  that  the 
Vogel  Collection  consists  entirely  of  the  minimal  and  conceptual  art  included  in 
The  Clocktower  and  ICA  shows,  in  1977  Bret  Waller,  director  of  the  University  of 
Michigan  Museum  of  Art,  selected  a  more  diverse  group  of  artists  for  Works  from 
the  Collection  of  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel,  including,  John  Torreano-  (plate  80)  and 
Judy  Rifka  (plate  44),  among  others  of  a  post-minimalist  orientation.  Nevertheless, 
even  today,  the  public  continues  to  associate  the  Vogel  Collection  with  minimal  and 
conceptual  art. 

Exhibitions  continued  through  the  1980s,  including  the  20th  Anniversary  Ex- 
hibition of  the  Vogel  Collection,  organized  in  1982  by  the  Brainerd  Art  Gallery  at  the 
State  University  College  of  Arts  and  Science  in  Potsdam,  New  York.  It  also  marked 
the  twentieth  anniversary  of  the  couple's  marriage,  and  was  accompanied  by  a  hand- 
some catalogue  designed  by  Barry.  Drawings  from  the  Collection  of  Dorothy  and  Her- 
bert Vogel,  at  the  University  of  Arkansas  at  Little  Rock  in  1986,  celebrated  the  works 
on  paper  in  the  collection,  and  the  catalogue  included  individual  brief  essays  about 
every  artist  in  the  show.  It  was  the  most  substantial  publication  about  the  collection 
to  that  date.  The  decade  closed  with  From  the  Collection  of  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vo- 
gel, organized  in  Dorothy's  hometown  of  Elmira  in  1988  by  the  Arnot  Art  Museum, 
which  traveled  to  four  additional  venues  through  1989.  By  this  time  the  Vogels  and 
their  collection  had  been  featured  in  many  mass  media  publications,  including  New 
York  and  People.™  And  they  were  frequent  participants  in  lecture  series  and  panel  dis- 
cussions about  collecting  contemporary  art. 

A  dramatic  change  to  the  Vogels'  apartment  was  slowly  taking  place.  When

drawings  that  had  been  framed  for  public  presentation  were  returned  at  the  close 
of  these  several  exhibitions,  the  sheets  took  up  much  more  space  than  previously, 
when  they  we're  stored  unframed  in  folders  and  boxes.  As  the  1970s  turned  into  the 
1980s  the  Vogels  had  no  choice  but  to  maintain  part  of  their  collection  in  exhibition 
shipping  crates,  which  gradually  displaced  their  furniture.  Eventually  their  apartment 
was  transformed  from  its  function  as  an  art  gallery  to  that  of  an  art  warehouse.  This 
circumstance,  plus  their  advancing  ages,  caused  Dorothy  and  Herb  to  think  more  seri- 
ously about  a  permanent  home  for  their  treasures. 

GIFTS  TO  THE  NATION  I: 

THE  NATIONAL  GALLERY  OF  ART,  WASHINGTON         H 

Over  the  years,  major  institutions  such  as  New  York's  Solomon  R.  Guggenheim  Mu- 
seum had  expressed  interest  in  acquiring  the  Vogel  Collection.39  The  fit  never  seemed 
quite  right  to  Dorothy  and  Herb,  however,  until  Jack  Cowart,  then  curator  of  twenti- 
eth-centurv  art  at  the  NGA,  initiated  a  conversation  about  the  National  Gallerv's  ex- 
panding  representation  of  contemporary  art.  As  curator  at  the  Wadsworth  Atheneum 
in  the  early  1970s,  Cowart  had  followed  minimal  and  conceptual  art  through  LeWitt, 
Carl  Andre,  Morris,  and  Lucy  Lippard,  and  he  certainly  was  aware  of  the  Vogels 
and  their  collection  before  he  actually  met  them,  probably  in  the  late  1970s.40  Both 
Cowart  and  the  Vogels  remember  talking  to  each  other  at  a  Museum  of  Modern  Art 
luncheon  in  the  mid-1980s,  around  the  time  the  museum  reopened  after  renovation. 
Cowart  suggests  he  first  visited  the  Vogel's  apartment  around  1986.  The  following 
year,  when  they  were  finalizing  their  twenty-fifth  anniversary  celebration — a  return 
visit  to  their  honeymoon  city — Dorothy  and  Herb  scheduled  an  appointment  with 
Cowart.  He  enthusiastically  introduced  them  to  the  workings  of  the  NGA  and  to  col- 
leagues engaged  with  contemporary  art.41  Further  conversations  about  the  NGA  as  a 
possible  home  for  the  collection  ensued.  Two  things  that  made  the  National  Gallery 
attractive  to  the  Vogels  were  the  free  admission  to  everyone  at  all  times  and  a  poli- 
cy against  deacessioning  objects  (other  than  duplicate  prints)  that  are  accepted  into 
the  collection. 

When  the  Vogels  visited  the  NGA  in  1962,  the  East  Building  had  yet  to  be  de- 
signed. Apart  from  a  selection  of  prints  and  drawings,  contemporary  artists  essentially 
were  represented  in  the  NGA  collection  by  artists  of  Picasso's  generation.  Alive,  but 
quite  advanced  in  years,  their  art  bore  no  relationship  to  that  of  the  young  radicals  the 


14   •    THE   DOROTHY   AND   HERBERT  VOGEL   COLLECTION 


Vogels  were  starting  to  collect.  This  circumstance  changed 
drastically  when  the  East  Building  opened  in  1978,  after 
which  contemporary  art  maintained  a  siable  place  in  the 
NGA's  embrace.  By  the  time  the  aquisition  of  the  Vogel 
Collection  was  under  discussion,  exhibition  and  collecting 
practices  at  the  National  Gallery  had  expanded  to  include 
a  substantial  representation  of  art  from  the  later  twentieth 
century.  Nevertheless,  the  Vogels'  interests  presented  the 
potential  for  a  massive  departure  from  previous  concerns, 
which  primarily  had  focused  on  the  abstract  expressionist 
generation. 

As  the  conversation  about  a  relationship  between  the 
Vogels  and  the  NGA  progressed,  it  became  clear  that  it  was 
not  possible  to  view  more  than  a  small  fraction  of  the 
collection.  While  paintings  and  drawings  covered  their 
apartment  walls,  and  objects  were  suspended  from  ceilings 
and  resting  on  every  available  flat  surface  (figure  8),  much 
of  the  collection  was  buried.  According  to  Cowart,  "There 
was  this  mountain  of  wrapped  art.  Crates  on  top  of  crates  on  top  of  boxes.  The  ac- 
tual apartment  had  reduced  itself  to  maybe  15  square  feet.  You  had  these  tantalizing 
glimpses  of  things — a  Donald  Judd  sculpture  or  a  Michael  Lucero  ceramic  piece."42 
For  the  collection  to  be  seen  in  its  entirety,  the  art  had  to  be  transferred  either  to  a 
warehouse  or  to  the  National  Gallery  itself,  and  the  latter  was  determined  to  be  the 
best  solution. 

In  late  summer  1990,  two  staff  members  from  the  NGA  registrar's  office,  Anne 
Halpern  and  Gary  Webber,  made  a  reconnaissance  trip  to  the  Vogels'  apartment  (fig- 
ure  9).  They  calculated  that  it  would  require  five  truck  shipments  to  bring  the  collec- 
tion to  Washington — and  it  did. 43  More  than  2,400  works  of  art  were  transferred  in 
September  and  October,  followed  by  many  months  of  intense  activity  on  the  part  of 
Cowart  and  several  assistants — as  well  as  staff  from  multiple  departments — working 
to  unpack,  check  in,  and  provide  museum-appropriate  housing  for  the  collection.  The 
Vogels  traveled  back  and  forth  from  New  York  to  provide  assistance  and  information. 
Laura  Coyle,  then  a  member  of  the  twentieth-century  art  department's  staff,  remem- 
bered how  the  experience  "made  me  realize  that  passion,  commitment,  vision,  and

the  ability  to  set  priorities  and  make  sacrifices  are  more  important  than  wealth  when 
it  comes  to  building  an  art  collection.  Though  it  never  hurts  to  have  money  also."44 
Once  the  art  was  properly  stored  in  Washington,  it  was  reviewed  by  everyone  involved 
in  NGA  collection-building  decisions:  curatorial  staff;  J.  Carter  Brown  and  Roger 
Mandell,  director  and  deputy-director  at  the  time;  and  eventually  the  trustees. 

J.  Carter  Brown  heralded  the  National  Gallery's  relationship  with  the  Vogels  at 
a  National  Press  Club  lunch  on  January  7,  1992,  and  the  acquisition  was  included  in 
a  press  release  two  days  later.  Through  gift  and  partial  purchase  (the  former  far  out- 
weighing the  latter)  the  NGA  had  acquired  from  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  214 
works  by  Andre,  Richard  Artschwager,  Benglis,  John  Cage,  Christo,  Judd,  LeWitt, 
Robert  Mangold,  Sylvia  Plimack  Mangold,  Joel  Shapiro,  and  Tuttle,  and  had  entered 
into  an  agreement  that  made  other  works  available  to  the  National  Gallery.  Given  the 
understanding  that  the  collection  was  too  large  ever  to  be  accessioned  in  its  entirety, 
conversations  ensued  about  placing  portions  of  the  VogePs  art  with  other  institutions. 

The  first  Vogel  Collection  exhibition  in  Washington  was  organized  by  Mark 
Rosenthal  (who  had  succeeded  Cowart  as  curator  of  twentieth-century  art),  his  as- 
sociate Molly  Donovan,  and  the  present  writer.  On  view  in  1994,  From  Minimal  to 
Conceptual  Art:  Works  from  the  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection  highlighted  what 
had  remained  the  best-known  aspects  of  the  collection  (figure  10).  In  2002  Donovan 
organized  Christo  and  Jeanne-Claude  in  the  Vogel  Collection.  And  over  the  years,  many 
works  acquired  from  the  Vogels  have  been  installed  in  the  East  Building's  perma-

has  been  on  view  at  the  entrance  to  the  auditorium  almost  without  interruption  since 
1993.45  According  to  Donovan,  "The  Vogel  Collection  not  only  deepened  our  hold- 
ings of  numerous  artists'  work,  but  greatly  expanded  our  relationships  with  those  art- 
ists as  well.  In  countless  cases  the  National  Gallery  has  built  strong  ties  to  the  artists 
in  the  Vogel  Collection  as  a  direct  result  of  the  Vogels'  beneficence."46 

The  NGA  worked  closely  with  other  institutions  both  on  individual  loan  re- 
quests, and  in  support  of  exhibitions  drawn  entirely  from  the  Vogel  Collection,  such 
as  The  Poetry  of  Form:  Richard  Tattle's  Drawings  from  the  Vogel  Collection  (1992), 
which  opened  at  the  Institute  Valenciano  de  Arte  Moderno,  Valencia,  Spain,  was  on 
view  at  the  Indianapolis  Museum  of  Art  (1993),  and  traveled  to  the  Museum  of  Fine 
Art,  Santa  Fe  ( 1995).  Women  Artists  in  the  Vogel  Collection  ( 1998)  was  organized  by 
Brenau  University  in  Gainesville,  Georgia.  Both  of  these  exhibitions  combined  works 
that  are  part  of  the  National  Gallery's  holdings  and  those  that  remained  on  deposit,

now  to  be  part  of  the  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  program. 

Dorothy  and  Herb  continue  to  travel  to  Washington  twice  a  year  to  meet  with 
NGA  staff  about  a  melange  of  issues  related  to  the  collection,  including  conservation 
discussions — primarily  with  Jay  Krueger,  senior  conservator  of  modern  paintings — 
and  oral  history  interviews  that  will  be  housed  in  the  National  Gallery  Archives.  Be- 
fore each  trip  they  send  a  list  of  works  from  their  collection  that  they  would  like  to  see 
during  their  stay,  what  has  become  Dorothy  and  Herb's  way  to  visit  works  they  think 
of  as  "old  friends."  Their  recent  acquisitions  are  brought  from  New  York  to  the  NGA 
on  a  periodic  basis.  By  the  close  of  2007,  a  total  of  1,100  works  had  been  acquired  by 
the  NGA  or  designated  as  promised  gifts,  and  plans  for  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel 
Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  were  in  place.

THE  DOROTHY  AND  HERBERT  VOGEL  COLLECTION: 

FIFTY  WORKS  FOR  FIFTY  STATES 

As  the  twentieth  century  turned  into  the  twenty-first  and  the  Vogel  Collection  had 
reached  a  critical  mass  of  some  4,000  works,  Dorothy  and  Herb  were  ready  to  final- 
ize plans  for  donations  to  additional  museums.  A  broadly  based  philanthropic  effort

seemed  best,  one  that  would  offer  opportunities  for  works  by  the 
artists  they  admire  to  be  seen  on  a  regular  basis  throughout  the 
country.  Their  decision  was  to  donate  fifty  works  ( many  of  which 
consist  of  multiple  parts)  to  the  permanent  collections  of  one  in- 
stitution in  each  of  the  nation's  fifty  states.  Tided  TJje  Dorothy  and 
Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States,  the  project 
provides  for  a  total  donation  of  2,500  drawings,  paintings,  ob- 
jects, prints,  and  photographs  by  177  artists. 
The  Vogels'  plan  is  modeled  on  Samuel  H.  Kress's  vision  of  making  his  entire 
collection  of  old  master  paintings  and  sculptures  available  to  the  public,  for  which 
purpose  the  Kress  Foundation  was  chartered  in  1929.  When  the  NGA  opened  in 
1941,  375  paintings  and  18  sculptures  from  the  Kress  Collection  were  on  view.  Like 
the  Vogel  Collection,  the  Kress  Collection  continued  to  grow,  and  by  1961  when  the 
Kress  Foundation's  gifts  were  completed,  paintings  and  sculptures  had  been  distrib- 
uted to  forty-four  institutions  throughout  the  United  States,  including  twenty-three 
colleges  and  universities,  plus  the  NGA.47  The  Vogels  hope  their  national  program 
will  enable  museums  to  exhibit  work  by  contemporary  artists  they  otherwise  might 
not  have  been  able  to  acquire,  just  as  the  Kress  Foundation's  gifts  enables  them  to 
showcase  earlier  masters. 

Dorothy  and  Herb  used  a  range  of  personal  criteria  to  determine  institutions 
to  which  they  would  offer  gifts.  Some  had  exhibited  aspects  of  the  collection  or  had 
invited  the  Vogels  as  speakers;  others  were  staffed  by  professionals  the  couple  had 
worked  with  over  the  years,  or  were  in  cities  that  had  meaning  to  one  or  the  other 
of  them,  like  Buffalo,  where  Dorothy  earned  her  bachelor's  degree.  For  some  states 
they  based  their  decisions  on  research  that  identified  institutions  with  a  demonstrated 
interest  in  contemporary  art. 

The  enthusiasm  of  Dana  Gioia,  NEA  chairman,  generated  the  idea  for  this  publica- 
tion, and  Anne-Imelda  Radice,  director  of  the  IMLS,  with  equal  vigor,  offered  to

with  IMLS  support  of  a  groundbreaking  educational  Web  site  to  document  the  proj-

But  each  institution  will  have  the  option  over  time  to  expand  its  segment  of  the  site,

•    THE    DOROTHY  AND   HERBERT  VOGEL   COLLECTION 


to  carry  a  complete  record  of  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for 
Fifty  States  initiative. 

"Insight,  Persistence  &  Daring:  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Story"  is  the 
apt  title  of  a  recent  piece  about  the  Vogels1  collecting  practice. 49  But  a  more  rigorous 
version  of  that  story  is  told  in  a  feature-length  documentary  film,  Herb  and  Dorothy, 
produced  and  directed  by  Megumi  Sasaki,  that  is  in  its  final  production  stage  as  this 
book  goes  to  press."'0  Any  full  description  of  the  couple  must  convey  their  capacity  for 
friendship.  It  is  apparent  from  the  many  works  of  art  they  have  received  as  gifts  from 
artists  to  mark  birthdays,  anniversaries,  and  other  special  events,  many  of  them  bear- 
ing affectionate  inscriptions.  Friendships  are  further  documented  in  the  Vogel  Collec- 
tion archives  at  the  AAA  and  the  NGA,  where  letters,  notes,  and  postcards  from  artists 
and  their  spouses  (and  occasionally  their  children)  mention  wonderful  dinner  parties 
at  the  couple's  apartment,  thank  them  for  their  support,  and  report  on  the  writers' 
travels,  often  emphasizing  art  they  encountered  that  particularly  excited  them.  All  of 
this,  taken  together,  offers  a  picture  of  Dorothy  and  Herb  as  a  gregarious  couple  who 
embrace  artists  and  their  clans  as  family.

The  Vogels'  warm  and  daring  modus  operandi  is  also  apparent  to  viewers  of  the 
collection  who  have  never  actually  met  Dorothy  or  Herb,  like  Lyle  Peterzell,  who 
photographed  the  art  for  this  volume.  He  commented: 

I  was  only  vaguely  aware  of  the  Vogel's  as  major  modern  collectors...  going 
into  this  project.  I  don't  think  anything  could  have  prepared  me  for  the  va- 
riety and  intensity  of  the  art....  It  became  apparent  after  a  few  days  of  shoot- 
ing that  the  pieces  were  having  an  impact  on  me....  the  common  thread 
seemed  to  be  that,  although  these  were  serious  works  of  art,  they  came  from 
a  free-spirited,  calm,  and  joyful  place.  It  was  hard  to  not  feel  good  just  being 
around  them,  and  leave  feeling  uplifted  at  the  end  of  the  day.51 

Long  admired  for  the  distinctive  nature  of  the  collection  they  assembled  over  forty- 
five  years,  and  for  their  many  supportive  efforts  on  behalf  of  artists,  Dorothy  and 
Herbert  Vogel  were  counted  among  the  world's  top  art  collectors  in  several  Art 
Newsarmual  listings,  and  they  are  included  in  James  Stourton's  recent  text,  Great  Col- 
lectors of  our  Time:  Art  Collecting  Since  1945.S2  Tlje  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collec- 
tion: Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  is  an  initiative  of  creative  generosity  that  undoubtedly 
would  also  place  the  Vogels  on  any  proposed  list  of  the  world's  top  art  benefactors, 
celebrated  and  influential  participants  in  the  arena  of  contemporary  art. 


FIFTY   WORKS   FOR   FIFTY  STATES    •     19 


POSTSCRIPT 

The  National  Gallery  of  Art's  April  2008  press  release  about  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert 
Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  listed  the  first  ten  museums  to  which  the 
Vogels  were  making  donations  from  their  collection.  Its  publication  in  the  art  press 
immediately  generated  a  flurry  of  requests  from  museum  staff  throughout  the  coun- 
try, eager  to  become  part  of  the  project.  By  then,  however,  the  Vogels  already  had 
determined  the  additional  forty  institutions,  but  had  yet  to  contact  them,  engaged 
as  they  were  in  the  process  of  finalizing  object  lists  to  include  in  the  letters  offering 
their  gift. 

As  this  book  goes  to  press  all  fifty'  institutions  have  accepted  the  Vogels'  gener- 
ous gift  offer  and  the  distribution  of  the  works  of  art  to  museums  is  underway.  Ex- 
hibitions including  these  gifts  are  planned,  selectively  in  upcoming  shows  of  recent 
acquisitions  (in  advance  of  exhibiting  the  gift  as  a  whole),  as  well  as  in  special  exhibi- 
tions featuring  the  entire  gift.  "Sharing  it  Out"  by  Louise  Nicholson  in  the  July  2008 
issue  of  Apollo  quotes  Dorothy  summing  up  the  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  project  as 
"50  different  entities  but  still  our  collection,  brought  together  by  a  website."53  And 
also  this  book.  Reinforcing  the  connectedness  of  the  collection,  communications  al- 
ready are  taking  place  between  recipient  museums;  and  curatorial  staff  are  in  contact 
with  artists  whose  work  is  included  in  the  collection,  eager  to  learn  more  about  the 
art  they  received.  Thus,  the  vision  of  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty 
Works  for  Fifty  States  project  as  a  way  of  keeping  the  Vogel  Collection  together  while 
also  sharing  it  throughout  the  country  is  taking  shape. 

Additionally,  Herb  and  Dorothy,  the  85-minute  documentary  film  directed  by 
Sasaki,  which  includes  lengthy  interviews  with  the  couple  and  several  of  their  artist- 
friends,  was  previewed  in  June  2008  at  the  Silverdocs  film  festival  in  Silver  Spring, 
Maryland.  Following  two  showings  (one  in  a  packed  400-seat  auditorium),  the  film 
received  the  Audience  Award  for  the  festival's  most  popular  feature-length  presenta- 
tion. Dorothy  and  Herb,  who  attended  the  festivities,  were  given  standing  ovations 
from  the  audiences  at  the  end  of  each  viewing.  Sasaki  closed  the  film  with  an  an- 
nouncement of  The  Dorothy  and  Herbert  Vogel  Collection:  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States 
project,  sparking  questions  and  comments  during  the  discussion  periods  following 
the  viewings  that  were  equally  attentive  to  the  couple's  generous  gifts  to  museums 
throughout  the  country  as  they  were  to  Sasaki's  extraordinarily  warm  and  cogent 
rendition  of  the  Vogels'  focused  life  as  collectors.

3  Edward  Wyatt,  "An  Art  Donor  Opts  to  Hold  on  to  His  Collection,"  The  New  York  Times 
(January  8,  2008),  Bl,  reports  that  Eli  Broad  announced  his  intention  to  maintain  his  collection 
in  a  foundation  that  will  make  loans  to  museums,  preferring  the  works  be  on  view  in  a  range  of 
institutions  rather  than  owned  by  and  held  in  storage  at  one.  The  Vogels1  goal  is  similar,  but  they 
hope  to  achieve  it  by  placing  ownership  and  responsibility  for  the  art  in  the  hands  of  multiple 
institutions. 

4  Dorothy  Vogel  in  a  tape-recorded  interview  by  the  author  on  January  29,  2001.  An  interview 
with  Herbert  also  was  made  that  day.  The  Vogels  describe  this  as  the  first  time  each  of  them  was 
interviewed  individually.  Additional  individual  interviews  were  recorded  on  June  20,  2001,  along 
with  a  joint  interview  on  June  2,  2003,  for  the  National  Gallery  of  Art  Archives  Oral  History 
Program.  Subsequent  endnotes  reference  these  interviews  as  DV  followed  by  the  interview  date. 
Other  data  in  this  essay  is  based  on  conversations  with  one  or  both  of  the  Vogels  over  the  past 
eighteen  years,  in  person,  by  telephone,  and  via  e-mail.  The  accuracy  of  my  memory  and  undated 
notes  have  been  confirmed  by  the  collectors. 

5  The  Vogels  met  at  a  social  for  vacationers  at  Tamiment,  a  resort  in  the  Pocono  Mountains  thaj 
Dorothy  had  visited.  Herb  had  not,  but  he  read  about  the  event  in  the  New  York  Post  and  thought 
it  would  be  a  good  place  to  meet  people.  He  was  right.

20  The  Vogels  gifts  of  Tuttle's  art  to  the  NGA  number  almost  300  works,  and  they  are  donating 
multiple  works  by  him  to  every  museum  in  the  Fifty  Works  for  Fifty  States  project. 

21  It  was  an  untitled  sculpture,  painted  gold.  LeWitt  later  asked  the  Vogels  to  exchange  it  for  a 
more  recent  work  (described  earlier,  which  would  not  stand  up  in  their  apartment).  They  have 
since  regretted  agreeing  to  that  exchange,  all  the  more  so  because  LeWitt  eventually  destroyed  the 
gold-painted  work. 

22  The  show  was  held  at  1 100  Madison  Avenue  from  January  5-31,  1969.  There  is  a  catalogue. 

23  They  traveled  abroad  for  pleasure  in  1963,  1965,  and  1970,  devoting  much  of  their  time  to 
museum  visits.  Subsequently  all  of  their  travel  to  Europe  was  related  to  exhibitions  drawn  from 
their  collection  and  Tuttle's  solo  shows.

25  The  Vogels  report  that  they  do  not  make  studio  visits  to  artists  whose  work  is  unknown  to 
them,  thereby  avoiding  encounters  in  which  they  find  the  work  to  be  of  no  interest.

27  Some  artists  who  prefer  collectors  not  visit  their  studios  requested  anonymity  in  reporting  that 
this  circumstance  essentially  ended  their  association  with  the  Vogels.

Building  at  346  Broadway,  between  Leonard  and  Lafayette  Streets.  Several  artists  the  Vogels 
admired  had  solo  exhibitions  there  prior  to  the  exhibition  from  their  collection.  The  couple's 
advocacy  for  artists  whose  work  they  collect  has  included  their  insistence  that  exhibitions  from 
their  collection  be  documented  by  publications,  however  modest,  to  make  the  artists  better 
known . 

36  The  title  page  of  the  exhibition  checklist  describes  Collectors  of  the  Seventies  as  "A  series  of 
presentations  about  collectors  of  contemporary  art."  Heiss'  introductory  statement  describes 
the  project  as  illustrating  "a  diverse  approach  to  collecting,  from  buying  drawings  to  sponsoring 
projects."

play   as  written,    or   play   the   notes    in   a   particular   tied  group- 
ing  as   one   note.      For    instance,    in   section  (f)tne  grouping?  can 
be  played   a;  -notes    (d-  )    instead   of   six  separate

than   one   performer  can   play   at   one  keyboard.      If    i.-.ords    are 
used,    the   notes   for   the   chords    should  be   chosen  with  descre- 
tion.      Octaves,    Perfect  Fifths,    and  Fourths    s.iould   predominate. 
Dissonant  relati  irritating    to   the   ears  very

twenty  minutes    to   an  hour^or   so-   maybe   longer.      V.'nen   all   the 
performers   have   reached (53)and   repeated    it    to   their   satisfac-
