Stephen Wallis's Art & Auction cover story profiles Donald & Shelley Rubin, passionate caretakers of Tibet's cultural heritage and two life-long New Yorkers who will open a $60 Million dollar museum devoted to the art of the Himalayas in New York's Chelsea district. Opening in Spring, 2004, the museum will house the most extensive collection of Tibetan paintings in the West and related artistic projects. Through their collection and web site www.himalayanart.org important works will become available to the public for the first time.
