ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Organized in honor of OKCMOA’s 80th anniversary in 2025, "From the Vault: The 80th Anniversary Exhibition" presents over 150 paintings, prints, photographs, drawings, and sculptures from the Museum’s permanent collection that showcase some of its depth and strengths. The works in the exhibition have not been exhibited previously or on display in the last five years, allowing OKCMOA to share more of its collection with the community. All of the works are organized by the decade in which they were formally acquired (or accessioned) and grouped thematically to help tell the story of the Museum’s permanent collection.

Featuring a wide range of mediums and styles, "From the Vault" includes some of the Museum’s most recent, never-before-displayed acquisitions, including those by Preston Singletary and Georgia O’Keeffe; works by Oklahoma-based artists like Oscar Brousse Jacobson, Emilio Amero, Nan Sheets, and Jonathan Hils; and hidden gems and rarely seen works by artists like Rembrandt van Rijn, Käthe Kollwitz, Frederic Remington, Alfred Stieglitz, Mary Cassatt, Thomas Hart Benton, George Wesley Bellows, Edward Hopper, Carlos Mérida, Alfredo Zalce, and more.
