The AGA's permanent collection is not a static entity—it is continuously growing and evolving. As it expands, it embraces a broader range of artists, mediums, and perspectives. This diversification is essential, as it reflects both shifts within the art world and broader societal changes. This exhibition highlights a selection of works acquired over the past 15 years, showcasing new additions to the collection. These acquisitions span a wide range of time periods, artistic styles, and mediums—from historical pieces to contemporary works. Both local and nationally recognized artists are represented, emphasizing the breadth and depth of the collection. The growth of the AGA collection is made possible through the generosity of donors—artists and collectors alike—who contribute works of art. Their support is deeply valued, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude for their commitment to enriching the AGA's holdings. As the AGA does not currently have an acquisitions budget, there remain notable gaps in the collection. Until we are able to establish sustainable funding for acquisitions, we continue to rely on the generosity of donors to help shape and strengthen the collection for future generations. |
