The museum’s Chairman’s Circle Dinner on March 11, hosted by Vontobel Swiss Wealth Advisors AG, unveiled an exciting gift to the permanent collection – a major painting by renowned artist Julian Schnabel generously donated to the museum by his former wife Olatz Schnabel. The large-scale 1997 painting, Portrait of Olatz Schnabel, is on view at the museum through November 1 with four other paintings by Julian Schnabel on loan from Olatz Schnabel’s collection.
The festive evening also celebrated the opening of the museum’s exhibition Pablo Picasso: Painted Ceramics and Works on Paper, 1931-71. Made possible with support from Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, Berger Singerman, and Eugene and Paula Stevens, the exhibition features works created by Picasso, among them exceptional ceramics, etchings, aquatints and linocuts from the NSU Art Museum collection.
