Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - "Almost every collector will confess that the excitement, if not the sense of self-fulfillment, of owning a work of art comes as much from the pursuit of it, as from the work's intrinsic and historic value. This is what it makes this collection of essays a veritable adventure book. It captures the exciting pursuit of a BenCab -- the wait, the serendipitous moment, that inexplicable attraction between the collector and the BenCab work, that unique connection between the collector and BenCab himself. - From the Introduction by Thelma Sioson San Juan"
