Information trouvée : Walter Hopps, a legendary figure in the international art world and founding director of the Menil Collection, died Sunday in Los Angeles, where he had given a speech earlier this month. He was 72. A maverick curator with enormous respect for artists, Hopps organized landmark exhibitions time and again over a 50-year career that included posts as the director of the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and curator of 20th century art for the Smithsonian Institution. His long career as a brilliant if sometimes controversial curator began in 1956 when he and artist Edward Kienholz founded the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles to spotlight progressive art by unknown artists from the West Coast and across the country, from Robert Irwin to Andy Warhol.
