Biographies & Memoirs

Arcade Pub

One of America’s leading curators, a woman of resilience and vision, a writer of clarity and ardor” (Chicago Tribune), takes you on a personal tour of the world of modern art. In the Depression-era climate of the 1930s, Katharine Kuh defied the odds and opened a gallery in Chicago, where she exhibited such relatively unknown artists as Fernand Léger, Paul Klee, Joan Miró, Ansel Adams, Marc Chagall, and Alexander Calder. Her extraordinary story reveals how and why America became a major force in the world of contemporary art.

Katharine Kuh ingresó al Instituto de Arte de Chicago en 1943 y dedicó dos décadas a escribir crítica de arte contemporáneo. Galerista, conservadora, curadora y coleccionista, creía que para comprender cabalmente una obra y transmitirla al público había que tener una total implicación. Así, guardó familiaridad con pintores como Léger, Rothko, Kline y Hopper, arquitectos como Mies van der Rohe y escultores como Constantin Brancusi. A ese mundo artístico e intelectual están dedicadas estas memorias, escritas por la autora a los ochenta y siete años y completadas a su muerte por Avis Berman, su amiga y albacea literaria.
