40 at 40: Celebrating 40 Years<\/b><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Farmer Gallery<\/p>\n

January 29-June 8, 2019<\/span><\/p>\n

The Miami University Art Museum (MUAM) is celebrating 40 years with an exhibition highlighting the diversity of the collections, exhibitions and educational offerings over the past four decades. Just as important, the exhibition 40 at 40<\/em> recognizes contributions made by many of the donors who helped make the Art Museum what it is today. Most of the art featured in this exhibition was on display at some time since being acquired. Some donations received over the past several years are on display for the very first time. With over 17,000 objects in the Art Museum\u2019s collection, it would take more exhibitions and programmatic offerings over many years for you to see everything.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the next few months, we will dive deeper into the last 40 years of MUAM including exhibition and acquisition highlights. For now, enjoy these teaser photos of a few of the pieces on display. To see them in full (which I know you want to do), come visit us on January 29!<\/p>\n
