This exhibition will feature a diverse selection of artworks made after 1960, all of which belong to the Norton but are more or less frequently exhibited. Some have become “classics” in a relatively short time, such as
Andy Warhol’s flower painting of 1964,
Harry Bertoia’s
Sunburst III (1968), and Sir
Anthony Caro’s
Topper (1978–79). Others deserve to be better known, such as a pair of signature stripe
paintings by Karin Davie,
Nice I and
Nice II (1992) and works in new media like Chilean-born
Alfredo Jaar’s romantic light-box image with mirrors,
Untitled (
Water), from 1991–94
