...frustrating to have to rely on photography often to display your works rather than showing the real thing...
Meanwhile, the Albright-Knox auctions will continue over the next several weeks. At least some of what's sold in them will go back up on public display, though not in Buffalo. The buyer of a circa 10th century granite statue of the Hindu god Shiva that went for just over $4 million was the Cleveland Museum of Art, which, unlike the Albright-Knox, already has a substantial Asian collection.
