Safeco Gift and other acquisitions on view at the Tacoma Art Museum from June 25 through January 2012
The Tacoma Art Museum showcases more than 400 works of art collected over the last four years as a result of the large donation of works from Safeco Insurance (a member of the Liberty Mutual Group) and Washington Art Consortium in an exhibit titled “Collecting for the Future: The Safeco Gift and New Acquisitions,” on view June 25, 2011 through January 2012. Featured are paintings, video, conceptual art, glass, studio art jewelry, photography, ceramics, fiber arts, works on paper, and sculpture. It reveals some of the directions that the museum’s collection is growing and offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into progress toward Tacoma Art Museum’s goal of building the premier collection of Northwest art.
