ANDOVER, MA.-The Addison Gallery at Phillips Academy presents Eye on the Collection: West to Hopper. The Addison has one of the world's greatest collections of American art, a testament to the broad vision of the founders of the museum and the generous support of friends over the decades. This show of the permanent collection is not thematic. Rather, it intends to acquaint visitors with the depth and breadth of the Addison's holdings of paintings by artists ranging from Benjamin West to Edward Hopper. Landscapes, cityscapes, still lifes, and portraits engage each other across a span of two hundred years in conversation about the richness and complexity of American art. Together they also show the Addison's prominent place as custodian of our nation's amazing cultural wealth. This exhibition has been generously funded by the Bernard and Louise Palitz Exhibitions Fund.
