In 2004 the ASU Art Museum announced that it would be the recipient of over 600 works of contemporary ceramics from Arizona resident and Belgian native Stéphane Janssen, considered one of the world’s leading collectors of contemporary art.
This exhibition will highlight a grouping of 80 works given in 2010, including master works by Robert Arneson, Ken Price, Lucie Rie, David Gilhooly and Beatrice Wood, as well as stellar examples of early Peter Voulkos, Ron Nagle and Michael Frimkess.
