Wilmington, DE (January 31, 2014) –The Delaware Art
Museum’s contemporary gallery recently underwent a major
renovation and reinstallation. Dedicated to the Museum’s
holdings of contemporary American art, Gallery 17 features
works of art from 1960 to the present. Reconfiguring the
gallery allowed the Museum to delve into its holdings and
nearly double the amount of artwork on view in the space.
