This week, we explore the life of Belle da Costa Greene, the Black visionary who headed the Morgan Library and Museum.Welcome to the Art Angle, a podcast from Artnet News that delves into the places where the art world meets the real world, bringing each week’s biggest story down to earth.
It’s Black History Month, and we wanted to take the opportunity to devote this episode to the story of a Black museum leader. We know that people of color have historically been excluded from positions of power in the mainstream art world, but that’s not the full story. In many cases, Black people were present, only their contributions were not properly recorded or acknowledged.
What if you were told that one of the most famous museums in America was in fact headed by a Black visionary? That’s the case with the Morgan Library and Museum in New York City, which was founded in 1906 to house the collection of the legendary Wall Street tycoon John Pierpont Morgan.
