The Barnes Foundation gave a preview of its much-disputed new space today in Philadelphia to a select audience, including members of the press. While the public opening is on Saturday, May 19, and is free to the public for the first 10 days, all the tickets during that run are already sold out. The Washington Post has a report and video of the sneak preview—art, grandeur, protestors and all.
