According to my sources, the exhibit’s last stop is the Princeton U Art Museum for a nice long stay, February 25, 2006 through June 11, 2006. I can’t find any reference to a stop in Portland. Too bad for Portland, but certainly more people will see the exhibit in Princeton!

Cheers,

Dear Don and Sam,

How sad - - this wonderful exhibit is making only three stops in the U.S. It started in Omaha (yes, the one in Nebraska), then to the Wiseman in Minneapolis, last stop Portland, Oregon.

There is one consolation -  the catalogue of the exhibit is available in hard back for only $30, and for those interested in Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, there is currently showing a documentary on the post Diaghilev Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo. For balletomanes it's two hours of heaven, and even for others, a glorious treat.

p.s. UCLA used to have a complete set of the Diaghilev periodical, Mir Iskusstva. But the last time I requested one, they only had photocopies. Very sad.
