00:15In the late 60s, a friend of mine
00:17told me, you see those two people,
00:21you will never think
00:22of it, but
00:23they are among the biggest collectors
00:25of new art in New York.
00:27These are the famous vogels.
00:32I think Hody and Dorothy were known
00:34by everyone.
00:36They were at every gallery,
00:38they went to every museum.
00:40There was nothing they didn't see.
00:44The art world was their
00:47habitat.
00:49He comes in
00:51and he points at the art like a hound.
00:53They liked the most unlikable work.
00:57That's a piece, a wire piece
00:58by Richard Tuttle.
01:00The most difficult, the least decorative.
01:03You see?
01:05That's a, that's a work of art.
01:06That definitely is a work of art.
01:08Her and Dorothy have
01:11eyes that see.
01:13There's two Julian Schnabel's
01:14at the very end.
01:16And Linda Benglis
01:17is the orange piece.
01:18You liked to buy them
01:19four at a time, I remember.
01:21You mean 40 at a time.
01:22There were boxes, there were crates,
01:24there were piles.
01:26There were works on the ceiling.
01:28Under the bed.
01:29Under the bed.
01:29Under the bed.
01:30The bed was getting higher
01:31and higher and higher.
01:32so they showed more art
01:35underneath them.
01:36They're this compulsive.
01:38I think.
01:39I'm almost like alcoholic, you know.
01:41They were greedy.
01:43What can I say?
01:44They were greedy.
01:44Yeah, that's what you're saying.
01:46Oh, thank you.
01:47Oh, thank God they were greedy, huh?
02:02Thank you.
02:03Thank you, Erin.
02:04I loved it too.
02:05Thank you...
02:10I love you.ariu
