The Journey Continues
Event WebsiteAbout
The Anderson Collection is thrilled to introduce The Journey Continues, a celebration of contemporary women artists that adds new dimensions to the story of modern and contemporary art told by the museum.
As part of the museum’s anniversary year programming, this exhibition helps chart a direction for the second decade that invites contemporary artists into dialogue with the museum’s core collection. The exhibition will be on view in the Wisch Family Gallery from March 19-August 31, 2025.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
Contemporary women artists, emerging and established, are the focus of an exhibition in the Wisch Family Gallery. The 19 works by 16 artists — including Sadie Barnette, Sheila Hicks, Simone Leigh, Masako Miki, Ulrike Müller, Arlene Shechet and Michaela Yearwood-Dan — represent a range of media, from ceramics and textiles to astroturf and painted surfaces. And while the approaches vary as well — for example, intimate to monumental — all are challenging the boundaries of their chosen forms.
