 Jun 29 - Sep 11, 2015, A Decade Later: Recent Acquisitions of the C.N. Gorman Museum
 Over the past decade, the C.N. Gorman Museum permanent collection has continued to grow, currently holding over 800 objects. The majority of the collection is based on donations by our exhibiting artists, UCD faculty and the general public, with some pieces purchased from donor and sponsor support. Works in the collection reflect several different types of media and most have been created since 1990. The collection is accessed for university teaching and research, and is regularly exhibited at the C.N. Gorman Museum and through loans to the UCD Chancellor’s Residence and other institutions. This summer exhibition features a selection of recently acquired works. It starts with pieces that are more historical to include paintings by Jack Hokeah, Oscar Howe, Andrew Tsinajinnie, Carl N. Gorman and Allen Sapp. The second half of the exhibition focuses upon the works of living artists in a range of media by Lee Marmon, Larry McNeil, Sonya Kelliher-Combs, Wendy Red Star, Kimowan Metchewais, Melanie Yazzie, Ryan Singer, Thomas GreyEyes, C.Maxx Stevens, Richard Dabbs and others. In many of the groupings, the pieces on exhibit are a selection from larger portfolios, particularly with the works of Lee Marmon who has generously donated over 70 works to the collection, and four print exchange portfolios organized by Melanie Yazzie which include over 150 works. CN Gorman Museum, 1316 Hart Hall, UC Davis, One Shields Avenue, Davis.  Mon-Fri: 12-5, Sun 2-5.  530.752-6567, cngorman@ucdavis.edu, www.gormanmuseum.ucdavis.edu. Veronica Passalacqua.
