Recent Acquisitions: Modern and Contemporary Art

August 25 – October 18, 1998

This intimate exhibition showcased twentieth-century works acquired by the Smart Museum of Art since 1996.

It featured paintings and sculpture by Robert Barnes, Robert Colescott, Joseph Goto, Red Grooms, Miyoko Ito, Edward Keinholz, and David Smith, many of which had not previously been on public view. The exhibition addressed the cultural, regional, and stylistic diversity of American art since World War II, and marked the Smart’s commitment to enhancing its collection of twentieth-century art.
