Exhibition Catalogue

Mosaics highlights works that are in dialogue with the art of mosaics, but aren’t necessarily mosaics themselves; it encompasses painting, sculpture, etching, drawing, photography, textile, and mixed media relief.

67 1/4 x 44 3/4 x 3/4 in (170.8 x 113.7 x 1.9 cm)


"A mosaic is any picture or pattern — representative or not — that is made up of small, often fragmented pieces arranged together to form a cohesive whole. In a way, one could imagine that our entire world is made of mosaics, from the atoms that constitute
our bodies to the skyscrapers which form city skylines to the stars which shape
the night sky."

— Deborah Goodman Davis
