A collection is a group of objects that seem to belong together. What is a collector? A collector is a person who gathers groups of objects together to create a collection. Some collections are public and other collections are private. Private collections belong to just one person. Public collections, are available to everyone. Peter Pincus Quatrefoil Columns, 2018, Colored porcelain and gold luster The title of this show is New Acquisitions from Julianne and David Armstrong. What is an Acquisition? An acquisition is an object that has been purchased or obtained. The exhibition title lets you know that each of the works displayed in this exhibition were “acquired” from Julianne and David Armstrong, and they donated these artworks from their private collection, to the museum’s collection. Bennett Bean Triple Vessel, C. 2010 Earthenware Who are David and Julianne Armstrong? David and Julianne Armstrong are the founders of the American Museum of Ceramic Art.
