Parrish Perspectives: Recent Acquisitions in Context

March 24–April 28, 2019


Parrish Perspectives: Recent Acquisitions in Context offers the Museum an opportunity to respond spontaneously and directly to art, artists, and the creative process. This year’s installation thematically pairs significant recent acquisitions with works drawn from the permanent collection, providing insight into how a museum builds and reimagines its holdings. Featured works include two recently acquired pieces by Alan Shields, drawings by Ned Smyth and Jennifer Bartlett, and a fabulous illustrative work by Matthew Weinstein.
