From the Vault: Modern & Contemporary Highlights
November 22 - January 17

 In this exhibition, a selection of modern and contemporary highlights from the Mark Arts Study Collection features the work of seven artists whose ingenuity and artistic vision has pushed boundaries and explored new modes of visual expression. Their experimentation with color, optical perception, and scale are hallmarks of the contemporary movement. Though not necessarily united by one cohesive movement or style, when viewed together these works give a glimpse of how art continues to evolve and inspire the artist in each of us.
