Opening at the end of August, Together Again, features new additions to the University of Davis’ Fine Arts Collection. The exhibition inaugurates the Manetti Shrem Museum’s ongoing collection galleries and will be on view long-term, with timely rotations. By focusing on relations of many kinds, this presentation proposes that in order to understand an artwork in all its fullness, chance encounters and long-standing friendships often matter as much as formal affiliations. UC Davis legends such as Wayne Thiebaud, Deborah Butterfield and Bruce Nauman are exhibited alongside important regional voices that were once overlooked, and the exhibition extends to the artists shaping Northern California today.
Together Again builds bridges between the University's past and their future, affirming the Manetti Shrem Museum as home to the complex story of Northern California art — rich in legacy and always in the process of becoming.
