NC Museum of Art’s Close to Home: Recent Acquisitions

North Carolina Gallery
August 18, 2013–February 9, 2014

As the preeminent art institution of North Carolina, the NCMA is firmly committed to presenting and promoting the work of artists from our state. Our frequent temporary exhibitions in the North Carolina Gallery are a testament to our ongoing goal of providing visitors with a broad view of the variety of work created by North Carolina artists and residents. As part of this commitment, the NCMA has amassed a collection of nearly 650 works by North Carolina artists in many mediums. Close to Home: Recent Acquisitions includes paintings, photographs, sculptures, and mixed-media works acquired by the Museum in the last 10 years. The exhibition features work by well-known favorites such as Bob Trotman, Beverly McIver, and George Bireline alongside brand-new works on view for the first time by artists such as Linda Foard Roberts, John Rosenthal, Peter Glenn Oakley, and Anne Lemanski.
