The Collection of Arthur and Anita Kahn | Christie's

During a lifetime of collecting, ‘the Rodin of the dental world’ Arthur and his wife Anita Kahn assembled one of the most remarkable collections of post-war American art. The Kahns assembled one of the most complete groups of Calder’s work in private hands. The scope and size of the Kahn’s collection is unparalleled. The examples of Calder’s iconic large-scale hanging mobiles, the delicate pieces of his exquisite jewellery, and his many works on paper are outstanding. Both Anita and Dr. Kahn followed the artist’s career closely and were rewarded with a level of access that allowed them to acquire some signature pieces that would become central to their whole collection. -- Subscribe to Christie's YouTube: http://goo.gl/Vmh7Hf Sign up to Christie's Weekly: https://goo.gl/kc8qpV Follow Christie's on: Facebook:   / christies   Twitter:   / christiesinc   Instagram:   / christiesinc   Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/christiesinc
