Do you ever wonder why certain pieces of art are more expensive than others? Why some artists are priced in the millions and others, no more than $300, even of the same time period, within the same artistic medium, and with similar technique? Why some artists “made it” while others did not?

If so, join us along with Dartmouth Club LA, the Yale School of Art, and the Yale Club of LA for The Cuatrecasas Discovery: an art historical slideshow presentation and exclusive, inter-ivy talk. Exhibition Director Janna Avner, Yale '12 and Curator Peter Hastings Falk, Brown will discuss the art career of Gil Cuatrecasas (1936-2004) in relation to contemporary art valuation methodology; followed by Q&A.

Gil Cuatrecasas, Harvard ’57, Yale School of Art ’59 is a newly discovered artist influenced by the 1950s Color Field movement. Come view this extraordinary body of work, learn about the artist's tragic life history, and obtain an understanding of why prices for art can vary dramatically.

The discussion will take place on the final day of the Cuatrecasas art exhibition.

Drinks and light food will be served.
