Yale University Art Gallery Bulletin 2011

An annual compilation of themed essays, exhibition highlights, and Gallery news, the Yale University Art Gallery Bulletin publishes original scholarship on works in the Gallery’s collection. Written by Gallery curators and outside scholars, contributions vary in length from extended studies to brief notes. The 2011 Bulletin explores works recently acquired by the Gallery, including a Cycladic figure and a Greek vase fragment, a previously unknown print by Thomas Hart Benton and one by Agostino Carracci after Francesco Vanni, 20th-century glass objects, and much more. Contributors include curators and former curators, students, and outside scholars. A note from the Gallery’s archivist focuses on the Yale School of Fine Arts’ important First Exhibition of 1867. Editor’s Note: Since the late 1940s, almost every issue of the Bulletin has regularly included a full list of acquisitions made since the previous issue.
