In Appreciation: New Gifts to the Boise Art Museum

The Boise Art Museum Permanent Collection grows each year, thanks to generous artwork donations from community members. This exhibition highlights a selection of recent gifts, including quilts and prints by Gee’s Bend artists Louisiana Bendolph, Mary Lee Bendolph, and Loretta Pettway; ceramic works by Val Cushing, Rupert Deese, Josh DeWeese, David Hicks, and José Sierra; and a large sculpture by Paul Vexler. The Vexler sculpture is the most recent addition to BAM’s Permanent Collection, made possible by BAM Collectors Forum members. The Museum is grateful to all of our donors for their support of our collection.

Organized by the Boise Art Museum
