I agree with you, the thousands of artworks should not have been displayed like that in their home, but all seems to have worked in the end. One of the reasons I thought the documentary was so powerful though, was that we saw the human interaction. I watched the film along side a filmmaker, a commercial artist, an animator and an engineer, none of whom would have watched it if I had not prompted a "screening". Each of them was glued to the screen by the time the hour was up; and that perhaps is the most important part of the documentary and the donation to the NGA, that the Vogels have inadvertently taught so many people about contemporary art.
