About this event

Ten BMAV members will be able to visit Phillips for a tour of Seeing Differently: The Phillips Collects for a New Century. The Phillips Collection, America’s first museum of modern art is celebrating its centennial! This Centennial Exhibition marks the first major celebration of the museum’s permanent collection in over 10 years. The exhibition will highlight over 200 works by artists from the 19th century to the present, including paintings, works on paper, prints, photographs, sculptures, quilts and videos. It will explore the complexities of our ever-changing world through themes of identity, history, place and the senses. Guided by Duncan Phillips’s belief in the universal language of art as a unifying force for social change, the exhibition will present dynamic, engaging juxtapositions that connect artists past and present across national, racial, and gender lines.

Thank you to Barbara Brown for arranging this for us.
