Compass in Hand: Selections From the Judith Rothschild Foundation Contemporary Drawings Collection December 16, 2009

This exhibition of three hundred works will be the first presentation of the Judith Rothschild Foundation Collection of Contemporary Drawings, a donation of approximately 2,500 works on paper that entered the Museum's collection in 2005. Assembled over just a few years, the collection ranges from the 1930s to the present, with a heavy focus on contemporary practice, providing a unique panorama of the state of drawing today. The exhibition will be accompanied by an extensive publication.
