Committee function
The Committee Mark Tobey (CMT) promotes the work of the artist in initiating exhibitions in art institutions and publications about life and work.
CMT supports projects by providing them with informations and provenances of works.
The committee builds up archives about life and work of the artist (catalogues, manuscripts, photos, videos, etc)
The committee works on a catalogue raisonné in progress on CD-Rom.
The committee protects the work of the artist against non-authentical material. For this the committee gives expertises for works attributed to the artist.
