LOS ANGELES, CA.- The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA), continues to highlight its outstanding permanent collection with a new exhibition at its MOCA Grand Avenue location. Collecting History: Highlighting Recent Acquisitions, focusing on works added to the collection during the past five years, will be on view July 12 to October 19, 2009.

I am really glad that MOCA is showing their permanent collection because I truly don’t think that enough museums and institutions do. It is easy to get preoccupied with special shows, traveling exhibitions and so on, that the treasures that lie tucked away in storage don’t even have an opportunity to see the light. Every piece should have an equal chance. Right?
