2025 SPECIAL PROJECT:
Stacey Epstein Fine Art collaborates with Foundations and museums on a range of art historically significant initiatives. In 2025 Stacey Epstein Fine Art proudly facilitated and oversaw the transfer of the core of the Albert Bloch Foundation to the Harvard Art Museums (Fogg Museum, Busch-Reisinger Museum and the Arthur M. Sackler Museum). This transformational gift included over 300 works of art by Albert Bloch from the Albert Bloch Foundation to the Harvard Art Museums/ Busch-Reisinger Museum. In addition to artwork by American Modernist Albert Bloch, several rare works on paper by the German Expressionist Franz Marc were gifted to the museum as well, further enhancing the museum’s distinguished collection of 20th-century European art. Albert Bloch’s archival materials were donated to the Straus Center for Conservation at the Harvard Art Museums, ensuring long-term preservation and future study. This landmark gift is expected to open up meaningful avenues for research and study in the field and present new exhibition opportunities. Stacey Epstein Fine Art is pleased to have spearheaded this project and to support the continued advancement of museum collections and scholarship.
