“Young, Gifted and Black: The Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection of Contemporary Art”

The Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection features a range of contemporary artworks in all media. Established and emerging artists of African descent predominate, with a special emphasis on younger voices of the last 25 years and those who have historically been underrepresented in collections, exhibitions and museums. This private collection is spearheaded by Bernard Lumpkin, an art collector, patron, educator and advocate. Lumpkin sits on the board of trustees of the Studio Museum of Harlem and the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and serves on committees at the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Museum of Modern Art.
