As if in a Dream: History, Fantasy, Future  | Featuring Daniel Crews-Chubb and Brenna Youngblood

These artworks started from a kernel of reality, glimmer of lived experience, or sliver of memory. Like dreams, they combine real and familiar elements but in illogical or uncanny ways. With works from the Museum’s collection supplemented by loans, this exhibition shows artists giving fleeting memories durable form, envisioning a future, and transforming the everyday into the visionary. Spread across the McCormick, Wasserman Family, and Davidson Galleries, and predominantly featuring collection items with a few special loans, the presentation is divided into two sections: landscapes and bodies (mostly human).
