The Cahén Archives invites participation in 

the Oscar Cahén Catalogue Raisonné and Cahén Fonds

 

Scope: The Cahén Archives houses archival materials providing a resource for exhibitions, teaching, learning, and scholarly research. The archives include the papers of the artist, and material in multiple media (textual, graphic, moving image and sound). 

 

Oscar Cahén Catalogue Raisonné:

The catalogue raisonné contains detailed records of the artist’s currently known works across all media from 1931 to 1956.

 

By documenting each work by Oscar Cahén in the Catalogue Raisonné, and contributing to the archival documentation on the history of the Cahén family, you will help affirm the authenticity of the artwork, and build the reputation and scholarly comprehension of Cahén's work as a whole.

​
