San José Museum of Art, California
sjmusart.org

Legacy: The Emily Fisher Landau Collection presents a selection of works from the historic gift of art pledged to the Whitney in May 2010 by longtime museum trustee Emily Fisher Landau. The exhibition, which includes more than seventy works by thirty-eight artists, traces many of the ideas that have preoccupied artists in the United States, particularly since the 1960s. Questions about the relevance of painting in the aftermath of Minimalism, debates about representation, “culture wars,” and a revived interest in personal narratives are explored. This exhibition has traveled from the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Work by Richard Artschwager, Gregory Crewdson, Willem de Kooning, Nan Goldin, Neil Jenney, Vera Lutter, Richard Prince, Ed Ruscha, Mark Tansey, Cy Twombly, and Andy Warhol is included.
