BUILDING ICONS: ARNOLD NEWMAN’S MAGAZINE WORLD, 1938-2000 – Opening next week. Exhibition Launch video, linked below

Hello Volunteers!

Earlier this month, you’ll recall we shared the exhibition launch video for KAWS: Family. Exhibition launch videos are new to the Gallery, and share the main messages behind each exhibition; providing a chance to meet the project team, explore “the big idea” with curators and interpretive planners, and more. They’re intended to help prepare us all for our upcoming exhibitions, by providing sneek-peeks.

We don’t currently have access to space at the Gallery that can accommodate all staff and volunteers – so these videos are being recorded and shared, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to view.

This week, we’re excited to share the exhibition launch video for Building Icons: Alfred Newman’s Magazine World, opening next week (October 18 for members, staff and volunteers; October 21 for Annual Pass holders).

These opportunities to view Exhibition Launch meetings include confidential material that is not intended to be shared with the public. The Gallery is trusting all of us – staff and volunteers – to keep these details confidential and not share this link outside of our community. Thanks in advance for your agreement and support! One final note: this is new technology for the Gallery – the Newman video includes a slight echo throughout the recording that can’t be removed here, but will be addressed for future recordings. Thanks for your patience!
