Reno, Nevada
Coming February 11 – May 20, 2012
The only nationally accredited art museum in the state, the Nevada Museum of Art features exhibitions by national and international artists with a permanent collection of 19th through 21st century art. Divided into five focus collections, the permanent collection is unified by an overall emphasis on art and environment: The Altered Landscape: Carol Franc Buck Collection; Contemporary Collection; Sierra Nevada/Great Basin Collection; Historical Collection; and the E.L. Wiegand Collection. This thematic specialization is a natural outgrowth of the institution’s collecting practices over the years and offers varied perspectives on the ways in which humans interact with their natural, built and virtual environments.
Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester
Rochester, New York
Coming August 26–October 28, 2012
Exhibition opening party August 25 in the Grand Gallery
A visit to the Memorial Art Gallery is a journey through more than 5,000 years of art history. From the relics of antiquity to works in the vanguard of contemporary movements, the Gallery offers a panorama of the world’s art. The Gallery’s permanent collection of more than 12,000 objects has been called the best balanced in the state outside of metropolitan New York City.
The Gallery was founded in 1913 by Emily Sibley Watson as a memorial to her son, architect James Averell. Given in trust to the University of Rochester, it is one of the few university-affiliated art museums in the country that also serve as community art museums.
