After “The Wild”: Contemporary Art from The Barnett and Annalee Newman Foundation Collection features works made by 47 contemporary artists between 1963–2023, part of a gift made to the Jewish Museum by The Barnett and Annalee Newman Foundation.
Barnett Newman (1905–1970) is among the most influential artists associated with Abstract Expressionism. After his death, his widow Annalee Newman created the foundation to help further the spirit of great art that he exhibited, by giving grants from 2004 to 2020. Diverse in style, training, background, and age, the foundation’s grantees — whose works comprise this exhibition — share Newman’s seriousness of purpose, as well as his unflagging drive to explore the outer limits of his own ideas.
