	Abby Aldrich Rockefeller: patron of the modern Magazine Antiques - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although Abby was a pioneering collector of American modern and folk art, her greatest cultural legacy was her role as a founder of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
		Rockefeller's great fortune; we so completely regard it as a trust to be sacredly administered, the by products of which are beautiful places to live in, the opportunity to buy beautiful things, and the great difficulty in making the world take us simply.
		Of interest is her reference to John D. Rockefeller Sr.'s fortune, not Junior's, although by then, Junior had already inherited a substantial portion of it.

	Abby Aldrich Rockefeller and Print Collecting: An Early Mission for MoMA - Museum of Modern Art - Absolutearts.com
		It is a wonderful tribute to Mother that MoMA is mounting an exhibition of her print collection in a setting that so closely reflects her own gallery at our home on West 54th Street, says David Rockefeller, Chairman Emeritus of The Museum of Modern Art and a son of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller.
		Erich Heckel, Max Pechstein, and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff of Die Brcke, as well as Max Beckmann, Kthe Kollwitz, and Wilhelm Lehmbruck of a slightly later period, are among the artists whose prints could be found on her walls.
		This period was one in which the muralists Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Jos Clemente Orozco, known as los tres grandes (the three great ones), were widely celebrated and sought after for commissions that brought them regularly to this country.
