TIPP! Book Discussion

Irene M. Walsh: Lillie P. Bliss. Collector, Advocate, and Visionary Benefactor of the Museum of Modern Art

On January 15th, 2026, author Irene M. Walsh will discuss her recently published book „Lillie P. Bliss. Collector, Advocate, and Visionary Benefactor of the Museum of Modern Art“, together with Anne Puentz, Head of Short Courses at the Courtauld. The online event will be moderated by Véronique Chagnon-Burke (Chair of TIAMSA and Co-Founder of Women Art Dealers Digital Archives).

The book highlights the often-overlooked contributions of women collectors, using Lillie P. Bliss as a case study to examine her influence on the development of modern art in the United States. It approaches her career through three complementary perspectives: her role as a patron and advocate of modernism, her engagement with the evolving American art market, and her impact on institutional collecting through her foundational contributions to the Museum of Modern Art. By combining archival research, market analysis, and art historical study, the book situates Bliss’s activities within broader cultural and institutional contexts, providing a nuanced account of her significance and the ways in which private collecting shaped early twentieth-century art institutions.

TIPP! Call for Paper

1950–2020: Active Women in the Art Market. Mapping Gallerists, Collectors, Maecenas, Auctioneers, Curators from the Iberian Peninsula and Brazil and their contributions to the Global Art System

Das Interesse an den weiblichen Akteurinnen des Kunstmarkts, darunter Galeristinnen, Sammlerinnen, Mäzeninnen, Auktionatorinnen und Kuratorinnen ist in den vergangenen Jahren in der kunsthistorischen Forschung stetig gewachsen. Im von der internationalen Art Market Studies Association im Oktober 2023 veranstalteten Autumn Colloquium soll der Diskurs weiter angeregt werden, indem man die Kunstmarktakteurinnen mit Fokus auf Portugal, Spanien und Brasilien von 1950 bis 2020 beleuchtet. Insbesondere die Akteurinnen, die bisher wenig Beachtung neben ihren männlichen Kollegen fanden, sollen mit ihren Leistungen und Errungenschaften auf dem primären und sekundären Kunstmarkt im Workshop behandelt werden.

Ein Abstract in englischer, portugiesischer oder spanischer Sprache mit ca. 300 Wörtern und ein kurzes CV (ca. 250 Wörter) sollten bis zur Deadline am 22. September 2023 an: tiamsa.amcpsb@gmail.com gesendet werden.

Der Workshop wird vom 11. Bis 12. Oktober 2023 online stattfinden.
