CUBISM-Lauder Collection @ MET-To Die For -Gifted upon Death?

Do NOT miss this jaw dropping Cubist exhibit consisting of more than 80 major works by the 4 preeminent artists whose artworks were key in the most influential art movement of the early 20th C.  Works by Picasso, Braque, Gris & Leger which have been held in the private Leonard Lauder.  This  collection is now on view to the public for the 1st time.  Don't even think about not seeing this remarkable, colossal, wonderment collection.   I did think about what is truly being gifted to the MET from the Lauder collection.  I noted several pieces that have been gifted this year to the MET but it's unclear whether the collection in its entirety has been promised to the MET.  Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.  Do see this rare exhibit of these master's works open til February.  We'll see what there is to see from this collection in the future.
