Making Connections: Highlights from a Decade of Acquisitions invites new dialogues between artworks. Featured in the Lockhart Gallery, the exhibition presents works in pairs, drawing connections between different mediums, styles, periods, and regions. This grouping strategy provides an opportunity for a more diverse understanding of a growing collection. Coinciding with multiple small installations in the permanent collection galleries, Making Connections reimagines the ways in which we bring artworks together to inspire new conversations.
