Description
The artwork from private collections of a select population from Southeast Wisconsin forms this exhibition. With a passionate unique pursuit, the collectors’ 70 artworks were acquired through art fairs, galleries, exhibitions, studio visits, and travel and feature a diversity inherent to each of their individual tastes. The collectors stepped outside their comfort zones to share prized possessions for this exhibition. The generosity of the 24 collectors allows the Cedarburg Art Museum to participate in a collaboration that facilitates cultural connections, enhances educational programming, and shares joy. This exhibition is made possible by artist, activist, writer, and guest curator Evelyn Patricia Terry with significant support from the Greater Milwaukee Foundation and The Kubala Washatko Architects, Inc..
