On display March 26 through June 29, Subversive Intent: Selections from the Collection presents rarely displayed artworks from the museum’s permanent collection, spanning from historical pieces by Hogarth and Goya to contemporary works by Holzer and Shimomura. It juxtaposes politically engaged art by the Kienholzes with introspective and irreverent subversion. Artists throughout history have used humor and critique to address social issues, shedding light on humanity’s flaws. The exhibition showcases artists as astute observers, challenging conventional perceptions and transforming everyday objects into thought-provoking art. Open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m., excluding university holidays and breaks.
