Stories Retold: American Art from the Princeton University Art Museum

This prestigious loan exhibition is an opportunity to present the best of the celebrated collections of American art from the Princeton University Art Museum. Nearly one hundred works spanning four centuries of American art history will be showcased in a wide-ranging exhibition that examines how the meanings of objects change over time, and in different contexts. Museum collections slowly evolve over the decades to reflect shifting priorities and perspectives, and as a result, objects and artworks are considered and presented in ever-changing ways. Stories Retold: American Art from the Princeton University Art Museum reveals many of the fascinating, challenging, and even controversial stories that have been told about these artworks over time – and offers us compelling new ways of seeing these works to reflect the times in which we now live.
