Description: 16 November 1965 statement by William SCHUMAN, President of Lincoln Center, on criticism levelled at commissioning of a British sculptor to create Reclining Figure, 1963-1965 bronze. American artists do not need protectionism, as occasion of the dedication of work by Alexander Calder attests. If we were to follow the line of reasoning of the picket who protested against the Moore work our American composers would have to picket Lincoln Center every time a work of Beethoven was performed.""
