Recent Acquisitions: Cool New Stuff |
September 4–October 16, 2009
In the Sabatini Art Gallery
Artist List
It has been over five years since the
Alice C. Sabatini Art Gallery compiled a
Recent Acquisitions exhibit. Since then,
we’ve acquired more than 1,500 new and
wonderful works of art. Imagine the
difficulty in choosing which works to
showcase and which to leave out!
Fitting 1,500 pieces into the Gallery
at one time would be impossible, so to
help tailor the selection into a
manageable group, Sherry Best, Gallery
Director and Curator, challenged each of
us to pick 5 pieces or more, and answer
this simple question: Why do you like it?
We in turn wanted to involve our
wonderful volunteers. They give so much
time and effort to the Alice C. Sabatini
Art Gallery, we considered this a
perfect opportunity to tap into their
knowledge and love of art and take on
this challenge together. Each volunteer
was asked to pick one piece of art and
answer the same question.
