• Finding Our Way

Over the past 10 years the lumber room has established itself as a meeting ground, exhibition space and private residence, with a goal of creating access and community around a shared interest in the arts. Our current exhibition aims to highlight the idea of the lumber room as a place in-between roles; a site that strives for domestic comfort while inviting discourse around contemporary art. Finding Our Way explores the collection as a point of entry for understanding the person who built it, Sarah Miller Meigs, and the artists and ideas she supports. 

With an intention of engaging the collection within the setting of a home, this exhibit will experiment with informal modes of display and a regular rotation of work being moved in and throughout the space. 

Finding Our Way is currently exhibiting work by: Lynda Benglis, Lee Bontecou, Louise Bourgeois, Kathy Butterly, Vija Celmins, Judy Cooke, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Nan Goldin, Sonia Gomes, Shara Hughes, Lucite Hurtado, Johanna Jackson, Jessica Jackson Hutchins, Helen Johnson, Lee Krasner, Simone Leigh, Glenn Ligon, Jasmine Little, Anna Maria Maiolino, Helen Mirra, Kate Newby, Laure Prouvost, Jessi Reaves, Deborah Roberts, Susan Rothenberg, Su-Mei Tse, Erika Verzutti.

In addition to the rotating art on view, Finding Our Way also includes a contemporary film program with visiting works from both regional and international new media artists. This month we are honored to share Su-Mei Tse's L'Echo, 2003, video projection (5 min).
