Collector's Society - David
Brauer
The museum's Collector's Society program sponsors a series of guest speakers
throughout the year from September to May. To complete this past season's
schedule, the Museum was delighted to have as its guest David Brauer, Senior
Lecturer of the History of Art Department of the Glassell School of Art
at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. Mr. Brauer spoke on the subject "Masterpieces
of French Painting, 1800 - 1929," an exhibit that was recently on display
in Houston and on loan from the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of
Art in New York, whose collection of French masterpieces
is among the best in the world. Mr. Brauer presented a slide lecture discussing
the artwork by some of the greatest artists active in France between 1800
and 1920, including such well known figures such as Delacroix, Monet, Cezanne,
Renoir, Van Gogh and Picasso.

After extensive travel in Europe, Russia, Turkey, and North Africa, he returned to England where he worked at the Institute of Contemporary Art, London, the Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, and taught at the North Oxfordshire College of Art and Technology. Since moving to Houston, he has curated numerous art exhibits and has guest- lectured extensively.
