On view in the South Gallery is “Ben Wilson: The Margin as Center.” The exhibit provides an overview of the artist’s career beginning in 1930, with special focus on large abstractions created from the 1970s through the 1990s.
This exhibit is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
