ISBN: 9781932236576
Subject: BIOGRAPHY
Publisher: ISI BOOKS US

In Growing Up Guggenheim, Peter Lawson-Johnston, a Guggenheim himself, and the board president who oversaw the transformation of the renowned museum from a local New York institution to a global art venture, shares a personal memoir that includes intimate portraits of the five people principally responsible for the entire Guggenheim art legacy. In addition to first-hand accounts of his grandfather Solomon Guggenheim, the museum's founder, his cousin Harry, Solomon's successor, and his famously rebellious cousin Peggy, the author writes about long-time museum director Thomas Messer and current director Thomas Krens. Lawson-Johnston also traces his own career, from his first job to his extension of the Guggenheim legacy in ways none of his predecessors could have envisioned.
