Aprašymas
The Rapp Collection celebrates the extraordinary collection of modern and contemporary art that Carol and Morton Rapp acquired over seven decades. Now resident in the AGO's Prints and Drawings Collection, the Rapp Collection features over 450 works by more than 200 artists, including Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, David Hockney, William Kentridge, Kent Monkman, and Lee Bontecou. Unique among Toronto collectors, the Rapps were especially drawn to printmakers and photographers who pushed the medium forward. Their collection chronicles the renaissance in these mediums during the 1960s and 1970s and their continued evolution into the 21st century.
The Rapp Collection features reproductions of a selection of 150 works and archival documents from the full collection, as well as essays by curators and artists including Rachel Anne Farquharson, Kitty Scott, Matthew Teitelbaum, David Moos, Jim Dine, Christophe Cherix, Tom McDonough, Maia-Mari Sutnik, and Sasha Suda. Together they present a fresh look at previously unknown works by major artists and examine the practice of collecting and the role it plays in shaping institutions and art history.
