New School Art Collection, 1963-1985
File — Box: 5, Folder: 10.2
Scope and Contents
Includes memoranda on artwork belonging and loaned to the university, indicating sales and gifts and updated insurance valuations. After Mocsanyi left the New School in 1985, a short-lived committee was appointed to make decisions about the art collection. For a time, Malcolm Carter, director of Communications, seems to have had oversight of the collection. When a second advisory committee was appointed in 1986, Vera List, whose support was central to the survival of the Art Center and the art collection, was appointed chair. The file includes discussions about whether to hire a new director of the collection. The New School Art Collection records indicate that Kathleen Goncharov was hired as curator of of the collection in 1987.
