To Have It About You: the Herbert and Dorothy Vogel Collection January 5, 2010

The exhibition showcases a gift to the Weisman of fifty works of art from New York collectors Dorothy and Herbert Vogel, with the help of the National Gallery of Art, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The best-known aspects of the Vogel Collection are minimal and conceptual art, but these donations also explore numerous directions of the post-minimalist period, including works of a figurative and expressionist nature. Primarily a collection of drawings, the Vogel Collection also includes paintings, sculptures, photographs, and prints by more than 170 contemporary artists, mainly working in the United States.
