Our current exhibition "Ways of Seeing: Three Takes on the Jack Shear Drawing Collection" is an experiment in connoisseurship and exhibition-making, with three distinct curatorial interpretations of Shear's expansive collection of drawings. 

For the first installation, on view through Nov 7, Jack Shear adopts a unique approach to hanging his collection, placing drawings alongside, directly on top of, or abutting other works on the basis of intuited visual affinities regardless of context or historical provenance. His unorthodox curatorial vision reinforces the fundamental truth that interpretations of art are always impacted by both our own sensibilities and by the context in which objects are seen and received.
