Yes, we are aware of the auction. It is exciting to see an artist long-admired in the Columbus community is getting wider attention. The art world is looking anew at figurative painting — especially those artists who worked or continue to work in communities like Columbus, like Pierce, Bellows, Aminah, and of course, Burkhart. CMA owns a wonderful Burkhart self-portrait.

I really enjoy reading your blog entries. They are very informative and entertaining.

I am curious to know if you and/or your staff are aware of the upcoming auction lot in the link that follows:

I am a fan and collector of Burkhart, and from what I know, this is one of his better known works, especially in the self-portait category. Is there any chance the CMA might consider trying to add this work to their Burkhart collection? I attended Michael Hall’s book launch event, and I recall that you mentioned that the museum already has more than enough Burkhart paintings, but this one is pretty special, don’t you agree? I think it belongs here in Columbus. Your thoughts?
