Remembering Henry Gardiner Henry Gardiner earned a Masters degree in Fine Arts from Harvard in 1960 and went on to become Assistant Curator of modern painting and sculpture at the Philadelphia Museum of Art from 1960 to 1968. He was appointed Director of the Fine Arts Gallery in San Diego in 1969 to 1979, during which period it became the San Diego Art Museum. Rachel Schipper, Director of Libraries, fondly remembers Henry’s contributions to The Four Arts, “He was so appreciated by the King Library staff and always here to help review the collection and worked at all of our book sales for many years.” After he arrived in Palm Beach County in 1985, he became an art appraiser founding his eponymous firm, Henry Gardiner Fine Art, donated many books to our collection over the years, and left a bequest to Four Arts upon his recent passing.
