[Public Notice: 7755]


Culturally Significant Objects Imported for Exhibition 
Determinations: ``The Steins Collect: Matisse, Picasso and the Parisian 
Avant-Garde''

ACTION: Notice, correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On April 1, 2011, notice was published on page 18292 of the 
Federal Register (volume 76, number 63) of determinations made by the 
Department of State pertaining to the exhibition ``The Steins Collect: 
Matisse, Picasso and the Parisian Avant-Garde.'' This notice was 
corrected by a November 18, 2011, notice published on page 71616 of the 
Federal Register (volume 76, number 223) as to the number of objects 
covered at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. These two referenced notices 
are now corrected as to additional objects to be included in the 
exhibition. Notice is hereby given of the following determinations: 
Pursuant to the authority vested in me by the Act of October 19, 1965 
(79 Stat. 985; 22 U.S.C. 2459), Executive Order 12047 of March 27, 
1978, the Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998 (112 
Stat. 2681, et seq.; 22 U.S.C. 6501 note, et seq.), Delegation of 
Authority No. 234 of October 1, 1999, Delegation of Authority No. 236-3 
of August 28, 2000 (and, as appropriate, Delegation of Authority No. 
257 of April 15, 2003), I hereby determine that additional objects to 
be included in the exhibition ``The Steins Collect: Matisse, Picasso 
and the Parisian Avant-Garde'' imported from abroad for temporary 
exhibition within the United States, are of cultural significance. The 
additional objects are imported pursuant to loan agreements with the 
foreign owners or custodians. I also determine that the exhibition or 
display of the additional exhibit objects at The Metropolitan Museum of 
Art, New York, NY, from on or about February 22, 2012, until on or 
about June 3, 2012, and at possible additional exhibitions or venues 
yet to be determined, is in the national interest. I have ordered that 
Public Notice of these Determinations be published in the Federal 
Register.

list of the additional exhibit objects, contact Julie Simpson,
