Artist-in-Residence Program at the de Young: Beth Grossman, Tracing History

Beth Grossman

Artist Beth Grossman uses found objects to evoke a sense of wonder about history. Inspired by the origins of the de Young as collection of "treasures and curios" at the California Midwinter International Exhibition in 1894, Grossman considers the de Young's collection and the story that is told by the way it is exhibited.
