Featured: “New York to New Mexico: New Acquisitions,” which opened on February 6, 2021, highlights new acquisitions of American and Native American art entered into the collection since 2017 — thanks to generous donations and purchases.
Blue Carts & Barbed Wired represents urban sprawl, questions land use, and illustrates the commodification of Jersey City, which is now at the zenith of gentrification. Abandoned and dilapidated lots are being purchased by the highest bidder directly under billboards stating “Jersey City Make It Yours.”
