“Three years ago, Ms. Gund went to see Ava DuVernay’s ‘13th.’ She was so disturbed by its message that she removed her prized painting by Roy Lichtenstein from her wall, sold it for $165 million and started the ART FOR JUSTICE fund.” Agnes Gund is a hero. https://t.co/hu87LgYEed

And in the WSJ

Her brother George is pretty generous to the arts too.

George passed away in 2013. But yes great guy. Very interesting family.

I didn't know that he died. I flew with him and his wife Iara Lee to Budapest and London when I was doing some camera work for her film Modulations. He was cool.
