Selections from the extensive collection of Robert H. Knox will open the 2019-20 season at Wartburg College’s Waldemar A. Schmidt Art Gallery.

“Shifting Definitions of Beauty: Selections from the Collection of Robert H. Knox” will run Wednesday, Sept. 4, through Sunday, Oct. 27. An opening reception will be Friday, Sept. 6, from 6 to 8 p.m., with a gallery talk featuring the Wartburg Department of Art lecturer at 7 p.m.

Knox’s extensive collection includes German expressionists, modernists and post-modern art gathered over the course of several decades. The collection includes an original Marc Chagall work, as well as signed prints from Pablo Picasso, Keith Haring, Max Ernst and many more.

“This is a great opportunity to see work by world-famous artists, many of which are featured in prestigious collections at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Museum of Modern Art,” said Johanna Kramer-Weston, Wartburg gallery director and exhibitions manager.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. The gallery, on the first floor of Bachman Fine Arts Center, is open daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
