In the Press: Aspen Institute Report on Artist-Endowed Foundations

(1-11-2011) András Szántó identifies artist-endowed foundations as the "sleeping giant of philanthropy" in an Art Newspaper article inspired by the findings of The Aspen Institute's recent two-volume report The Artist as Philanthropist: Strengthening the Next Generation of Artist-Endowed Foundations. Szántó outlines the activities of the larger and most active artist-endowed foundations, comments on their systems of asset management, and posits that "with an unprecedented cohort of well-to-do painters and sculptors among the older generations, the golden age of artist foundations may yet be ahead."
