Maven of Modernism

Maven of Modernism: Galka Scheyer in California which delves into the life of enterprising dealer, Galka Scheyer is available for viewing through September 25th at the Norton Simon Museum of Art in Pasadena.  She was responsible for the phenomenon the "Blue Four" - Lyonel Feininger, Alexei Jawlensky, Paul Klee and Vasily Kandinsky.  She single-handedly cultivated good taste for their brand of European modernism.  The exhibit presents exceptional examples from her personal collection.  Cheers to good taste!
