The Time. The Place. Contemporary Art From The Collection

Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, WA - To Apr 22

by Matthew Kangas

The Henry has been most successful at attracting young wealthy techies with an interest in funding contemporary art programs and acquisitions. As a result, director Sylvia Wolf is displaying some of the riches of the past two decades. Director Emeritus Richard Andrews and ex-curator Elizabeth Brown secured accessions by Richard Long, Lorna Simpson and Shirin Neshat, among other sculptors, video and installation artists, many of whom have shown at the U of W museum, now in its 90th year.
