ARTISTS' GIFTS: MICHAEL ASHER
09.09.07 - 01.07.08
MOCA has an extraordinary legacy of relationships with artists, who have generously supported the institution since its founding. Its permanent collection has been significantly enriched by artists donating their own works, as well as those of other artists. In 2006, Michael Asher made a gift to MOCA of 37 works from his personal collection, one of the largest gifts from an artist in the museumï¿1⁄2s history. Spanning the late 1940s to the early ï¿1⁄270s, many of the works were produced or exhibited in Los Angeles. Artistsï¿1⁄2 Gifts: Michael Asher features selections from this donation, including key works by Larry Bell, Vija Celmins, Judy Chicago, Joe Goode, Al Hansen, Donald Judd, Ken Price, Man Ray, Mason Williams, among others.
