Coptic Art

A 1943 portrait by the renowned modern American painter Milton Avery (1885–1965) of his friend Dikran Kelekian—a noted collector of modern paintings, Coptic, and Islamic art, and an influential dealer in Middle Eastern art of all periods—is the centerpiece of this installation. 
The presentation presents one example of Kelekian's success in encouraging contemporary artists to become interested in ancient art, especially Coptic art.
