- Over 30 years, a retired postal worker and his wife, a retired librarian, have amassed one of the world's great collections of avant-garde art. But rather than cash in, Herb and Dorothy Vogel are donating all 2,000 pieces to the National Gallery of Art. Mike Wallace reports.

When you've just given up on people, the Vogels pop up. Thank you for restoring my faith. May you be blessed for eternity.
Si Fi Well said, thanks!
I cried so hard watching this. What a magestic love these 2 people have.
Knowing these people exist in this world makes my days brighter.
The advantage is that they can stroll down the street whenever they want, pop into the museum and see all the art that they were keeping in boxes. Not to ignore the fact that they are two tremendously generous persons that were drawn to that particular museum because admission was free...and everybody could enjoy their art...they are an example to all the world 👏👏👏
what a great example of living an honest fun life, together, and have more meaning to it than the worth of possessions from the material world. ♥ -Respect Herb & Dorothy.
Thank you!
we need more people like them in the art world, instead of these greedy bastards we have now a days
Oh, Mike, how well said, how well said. God Bless this beautiful couple.
Exactly. Be like the Vogels, people!
"Now a days" vs the altruistic delicate snowflakes in Renaissance Florence? ;-)
Yes, but they are giving it to greedy B's who are making tons on them, without having to pay them a penny.
100% Agreed
Great New Yorkers! Thank you Vogels.
I always noticed the name in the Museum. Never knew who they were, just thought they were a socialite, rich couple.
They're so small and beautiful. I love them.
This is what integrity and passion look like!! In a world obsessed with money and greed, these stories should be shown to all high school and college students, they may just end up doing what they love instead of chasing the mighty dollar.
What a wonderful couple. The Vogels are really inspirational.
Conrad Bo inspiring hope for the.human in humanity. Artists express what science can’t or something like that.
I cried when he said he could’ve not done this collection with her.
Absolutely wonderful
"We didn't do it to make money."
Thank you.
An inspiring couple who reveal their deep passion for art and the possibility it can be for everyone as a collector and finally as a donor so all can enjoy it. Priceless.
Mr Vogel looks irritated by those money questions.
I think if he disclosed how much he paid, it would make the people selling them look beyond greedy, so he is covering for them
Oh he's pissed
People like this are extraordinarily rare. Makes me cry.
Wonderful and inspirational couple. I read herb passed away in 2012. But what a wonderful legacy
They are such a humble couple.... and so adorable 🥰🥰
Thank you So very much 💐. You are two exceptional people with a love for art on the right spot 🖼 ❣️ 🖼.
This lovely couple are works of art!
„What would you be without me?“ and he literally said „I‘d be nothing“ this got me in tears men
They are the sweetest, most inspiring couple besides my parents that personify everything noble and generous a human being can be. Although I must say I'm kind of pissed off at them for making me cry. Bless them.
Admiration and Respect are the two words that come to me... :-)
FANTASTIC!!! WONDERFUL PEOPLE!!
you can feel how genuinely he meant it as he said he would be nothing without her. a true testament to unconditional love, and a gesture hard to ignore.
these two are everything.
Yep wow what absolutely wonderful people! Give Mr. Vogel something! Omg
Wow simply Wow what an amazing couple Thankyou Mr and Mrs Vogel...
I just love these two!
What would you be without Dorothy?
Herb: Nothing.
Wonderful people. Thank you.
I love them 😇😇
I’ve always loved art they are an inspiration to me and my collection
So heartwarming... beautiful people.
Herbie died in 2012, Dorothy is still living ( 2021, aged 86 ). A truly outstanding couple, fantastic watch.
Lovely people. The star trek enterprise of art collectors
What a remarkable couple
The way these to responded to art 🖼 is the right way to enjoy anything that brings you joy. Do it for love and enjoyment and you will be truly blessed. The artists became their family and the art their children.
God Bless them!
That lovely smile by Christo at the end!! Their friendship with him and Jeanne-Claude says a lot about their worth as people.
Good bless them !
Amazing people are everywhere!👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A true genuine art collect couple that knew their stuff.
Love them!!
Reminds me of the Ganz collection.
Wonderful
It's just mindboggling that people like the Vogels exist!
Bravo for your life's work!
Wonderful!
Such Beautiful people 😢
The Voguls 😭 Dorthy is so cute 🥰
Mad respect!
Love these two❤️
WTF. But I love that they are good and they truly believed in what they did. I love their love.
Wonderful couple. Don't know if Mike Wallace was playing at being a Philistine, but that's what he came across as. He can't seem to understand that not everyone in the world is motivated by money.
I love them so much!!
Some art is a fraud. Just because someone with a formal qualification or experience with arts says it's grand doesn't make it so. However, that said the Vogel collection is wonderful. A lifelong passion for collecting has given them a life that took them from the ordinary to the extraordinary. What a lovely couple!
Beautiful people 💝
Awe, so sweet he said nothing he would be nothing with out her
They are gems!!
For the love of Art!
That was beautiful!
Beautiful people.
Wao they are amazing
The bit of rope is sash cord from old wooden "sash n case" windows, the tacs used are sash cord tacs used in these types of windows.
wonderful!
Comme quoi, il faut suivre son instinct. C'est super d'avoir des œuvres originales chez soi. Et puis, peut-être un jour, comme pour les Vogel, on s'aperçoit qu'on a réalisé une superbe collection. Pas de calcul, juste de la passion.
🔥👍🏾🖤🤩They are TRUE heroes of art. Their children are artworks. Amazing!
Good people who love art
Fantastic
I started collecting 40 yrs ago, but I’m such a critic, I wouldn’t buy one peace still searching for that special piece...the couple are VERY NICE PEOPLE ...I get them
I like these people
I love this couple
Real people buying what they like and can afford.
super art
I aspire to be these people.
May God bless the Vogels. They are literate.
This world doesn't deserve them♡♡...
The world would be a muck better place if they ran it.
Wow 🤩 👏
Éste video me inspiró , ahora me doy cuenta que puedo hacer gran fortuna con mis dibujos y pinturas. Claro comparo mis obras con estos bodrios.
They are so sweet
Los saludo por estar
04:32 Mike Wallace's face : I'm on the wrong end of a prank, arent I ?
A real artist makes art with his heart, not with his wallet
Michelangelo demanded to be paid.
adorable couple.. Their collection... not so much. They grew up in a period when you could buy almost anything/anyone and make money on it. Not so any more. Everyone is trying to get in on it. The natural course of things...
Does art make collectors or do collects make something art? As an artist this puzzles me.
We collect out of interest, curiosity and appreciation for whatever it is that we are collecting, be it baseball cards or art. We will think nothing of going without, if it will help us to get a piece to add to our collection, so that we can continue the narrative that we are engaged creating and telling through our collecting and our collection. (Note: I am being specific and limiting, as I am writing about collectors that are similar to the Vogels, people whose collections our personal statements and those of wealthy individuals who see art as a commodity that is to be bought and sold, is for decoration and are buying, because that is what their “art advisor” or interior designer has recommended them to buy. These people seldom, if ever “discover” a new artist or trend. They tend be more concerned with not clashing with the rug, or, bagging a trophy piece to hold bragging rights.)
I would say that art does not make a collector, because collecting is something of a character trait and a need that must be fulfilled and art is just on of many things that someone may choose to collect. Though, in our collecting of art, we are elevating it and validating to being a work of, for we are the audience of it and for the artist.
I would go even further and say that art collectors, make artists, artists. Without collectors, a person creating works, is a technician, a crafts person, a fabricator and a hobbyist. Not that anything be wrong with being so. With collectors, they move on to being a professional and artist, as they now have someone that is interested in listening to and engaging with their narrative as it is transmitted through and by their work. With the collector, they now have someone with whom to have dialogue with and our now creating works that are an expression of culture of people and of their society.
such a cute couple. humble Billionaires
They weren’t billionaires, they were fairly poor and humble
Amazing and inspirational story proving that even extraordinary people with ordinary incomes can do extraordinary things and amass many tens of millions (and by some accounts, such as Forbes magazine, $200 million) in assets, and all the while having fun.
❤❤❤❤❤
Noble teachers
imagine you buy art in every country and tribe in the world
Real art is priceless ...
So Pour and sweet
😘
this feels like a portlandia bit
I HAVE SOME OLD PAINT RAGS IN THE TRASH I WILL SELL THEM FOR FIFTY THOUSAND BUCKS
Says they dont reveal prices then reveal they watched a cat.
In this collections are a few artworks of compmaturism
If they are not going to sell anything, or have any intention to do so in the future - why will they not state the price they paid for it ?
Johann Brandstatter because they insist that money doesn’t matter. It is only their love of art that matters
He was wise to not tell how much money they paid. It would have completely changed the dialogue.
So, all he can talk about is money.
What is the address of their apartment?
Why not sell a few pieces and buy a home (or a bigger apartment) so you can display your art? I don't get it.
What if they are secret agents ihhihihi
