Michael Johansson, Last Summer, 2014.

“We do not just collect masterpieces; we have a story to tell about individual works of art, about art histories, and about how all this fits into a global world view. By telling those stories we connect people. My commitment is both to enhancing those stories — and to the Museum in its goal of making art make sense of the world.” Opening in tandem with the #BKArtistsBall will be a special exhibition entitled Diverse Works: Director’s Choice 1997-2015, which brings together more than 125 exceptional works of collected during Director Arnold Lehman’s 18-year tenure. Organized by the Brooklyn Museum’s curators, the exhibition highlights the wide-ranging vision of the Institution’s retiring leader and underscores the Museum’s commitment to diversity in collection building. Coming from every corner of the globe and covering many centuries, the works come together to bring the many collection areas of the Brooklyn Museum into the 21st century. Each week leading up to the Ball and the exhibition we will feature an object from #DiverseWorks along with a musing about that work directly from #ArnoldLehman
