Regarding the recent post on conservation shows, I wonder if anyone
remembers the really wonderful Albert Ryder exhibit at the National
Museum of American Art a couple of years ago.  A third of the exhibit
was devoted to a conservation analysis of Ryder's work and included
x-rays.  Another third of the show, interestingly enough, was devoted
to fakes.  A really innovative exhibit that should have gotten NMAA
as much attention as the ever-popular West as America.
