Diane Arbus news. The New York Times, just reported that the Metropolitan Museum in New York just received a major gift from the Estate of Diane Arbus. They received her complete archives (as featured in an exhibition two years ago), hundreds of early photographs, negatives and contact prints of more than 7500 rolls of film.
In addition, The Met purchased 20 Arbus photographs frome the Fraenkel Gallery in San Francisco, which represents her estate. If you were at Art Basel Miami Beach, you would have seen a nice selection of Arbus prints in the Fraenkel Gallery space.
