Описание к видео Frick Five, Xavier F. Salomon interviewed by Aimee Ng

In the eighth episode of “Frick Five,” Curator Aimee Ng interviews Xavier F. Salomon, Deputy Director and Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator. Xavier discusses his early desire to be an archaeologist and a paperback edition of Howard Carter’s book on the discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb that his parents bought for him at a Swiss supermarket. (It may come as no surprise that Xavier’s all-time hero is a Spielbergian archaeologist with a fear of snakes.)

The artists and writers mentioned in this episode include: Paolo Veronese, Marguerite Yourcenar, Giuseppe Verdi, Maria Callas, Caravaggio, Donatello, and Jacek Malczewski.
