This focus exhibition features paintings in acrylic and watercolor by local artist Frieda Logan, pulled from the Museum's permanent collection and featuring heartfelt depictions of daily life in the American Midwest in the 1980s.
This exhibit features work by a group of artists working in America in the 1960s and 1970s, dubbed "Lyrical Abstractionists" - who sought to expand the idea of abstract painting and to reassert the importance of the formal elements of line and color. The exhibit is pulled from the Museum's permanent collection and includes work by Robert Natkin, Larry Poons, and Sam Francis, among others.
This exhibit features work pulled from the Museum's collection, as selected by three local artists - musician Jin J. X, poet Kate Murr, and dancer Sarah Wilcoxon. These works will be exhibited alongside new work created by each artist in their own medium as we investigate the spark that begins a connection with a work of art.
In June 2016, Artist Anne Lindberg was commissioned to create a site-specific installation in the King Gallery. The work, "tilted sky," is composed of Egyptian cotton thread and staples. The work will remain on long-term view as part of the Museum's collection.
