For 40 years, Kim Manocherian has built an independent, irreverent collection that now numbers more than 600 works and spans emerging to well-known artists. Drawn to female narratives, the collector has acquired the likes of Mary Beth Edelson Kara Walker, Sasha Gordon, Alice Neel, Louise Bourgeois, Anita Steckel, Sarah Lucas, Paula Rego, Annie Morris, and Janet Sobel.

The Easton Foundation is now dedicated to preserving Bourgeois’s legacy. Serving to promote the scholarship and awareness of Bourgeois’s life and art, the Foundation aims to cultivate new interpretations of her work while providing a deeper understanding of her artistic process and creative milieu. As part of this mission, the Foundation has established the Louise Bourgeois Archive, a study center and residency for curators and scholars, as well as a sculpture garden and a small exhibition space presenting original archival materials and works from the collection. The Foundation is also undertaking the ongoing conservation of Bourgeois’s distinctive home and studio, in which she lived and worked for almost 50 years.
