This is a past event.

The Leonard A. Lauder Collection of Cubist art, now a promised gift to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, was being shown in public for the first time.

It consisted of eighty-one paintings, collages, drawings, and sculpture by the four preeminent Cubist artists: Georges Braque, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, and Pablo Picasso.

Dr. Knox gave the V&AAF group an interesting and informative perspective on both the collection and Cubism.
