Lucid Dreaming: Hallucinations and Alternate Realities from the Carl & Marilynn Thoma Foundation Collection

February 28 through May 31

Throughout history, artists have consistently provoked viewers to look at the world through a different lens. They have inspired a consideration of the difference between how things appear to be and how they could exist in an alternate, future, or augmented version of reality. Drawn from the Carl and Marilynn Thoma Foundation collection, Lucid Dreaming presents works by artists who provoke us to think about the world we live in, the ground we stand on, and to take another look at the physical and psychological world we previously thought of as fixed as something more flexible and capable of change.

The selection of nearly 30 artworks includes recent acquisitions by Cardiff and Miller, Miles Greenberg, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, and Jennifer and Kevin McCoy, among others.
