35 artists, including Yoko Ono, Marina Abramovic, Louise Bourgeois, Piero
Manzoni, Kiki Smith, Gabriel Orozco, Yves Klein, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, and
many others.

Conversations with the Permanent Collection
Rhythms and Rituals That Feed My Spirit
A Project by Blondell Cummings
Choreographer and dancer Blondell Cummings has selected works by such noted
contemporary artists as: Romare Bearden, Willie Cole, Luis Jiménez, Dinh Q.
Lę, Ana Mendieta, and Lynne Yamamoto that focus on notions of domesticity,
labor, ritual, and spirituality in contemporary culture. The works on
display are presented along with subtle interventions or participatory
activities developed by the artist and intended to engage viewers with
familiar images and sounds that reflect the commonality of human experience
as well as the intersection between the private and the public, the
personal and the communal.
