Bringing Together: Recent Acquisitions

On display through Jan 26, 2020 at the New Mexico Museum of Art

A cross selection of artworks acquired by the museum over the past five years. Whether acquired by gift or purchase, every item is carefully chosen to add to the richness of the museum collection. Spotlight on recent gifts include two glass collections, contemporary artwork, the finalization of the Lucy Lippard gift and several significant paintings. Loose groupings will explore and present the breadth and depth of the Museum of Art collection. How a collection is “brought together” and shared will be an undercurrent of the text and wall panels.

Also on exhibit at the New Mexico Museum of Art
