Gary Vikan Talk
You probably know of Gary as the dynamic former director of the Walters Art Museum for nearly two decades. Now delight in the man as raconteur, art sleuth, exposer of museum frauds, medieval scholar, author of the book Sacred and Stolen, Confessions of a Museum Director and–ready for this?–ardent devotée of Elvis Presley! With wit and verve, Gary Vikan will regale us with his true tales–how he discovered that famous Egyptian sculptures were forgeries, how he helped save a chopped-up medieval Cypriot church fresco and many more–and will show slides of some of the treasured works of art that were his focus.
