o-curated by assistant curator Rachel Sadvary Zebro and Tim Rodgers, PhD, the Museum’s former Sybil Harrington Director and CEO, the reinstalled galleries on the Museum’s second-floor North Wing will create new conversations between works from the European art, art of the Americas, contemporary art, and fashion-design collections, including those by Claude Monet, Kehinde Wiley, Julius LeBlanc Stewart, and Dame Barbara Hepworth. Made possible through the generosity of Focus on European Art, an independent art appreciation and support group that raises funds for local art-education programs and exhibitions with a special emphasis on European art, the reinstallation is the next installment in the Museum’s Reframed project. The ongoing initiative was launched in 2016 to bring diverse perspectives and knowledge from artists and scholars from across Arizona into the Museum,
