Abstract
- FEATURES SHOCK WAVES REVERBERATED THROUGH philanthropy circles this past June when the renowned Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Angeles announced it was shutting down. Well-known benefactor Wallis Annenberg, who, as the name suggests, had financed the exhibi-tion space since its debut in 2009, had pulled the plug, deciding to redirect her family foun-dation's considerable resources toward Covid-19 and social-justice issues. In July, Komen called off its famous Race for the Cure fundraising walks and runs - responsible for 50 percent of its income - because of the obvious difficulties in exercising en masse during an airborne-virus pandemic. Tinterow says that MFAH has been rejigger- ing its exhibition schedule and that its shows will be less ambitious going forward. [Extracted from the article]
