Over the past 25 years, Hedy Fischer and Randy Shull have amassed one of the most robust collections of contemporary art in North America. Built with passion and focus, their collection reflects a shared commitment to support authentic, diverse voices in the arts, and to champion important social justice issues.

SEEING STARS highlights some of the groundbreaking, traditionally underrepresented artists in the Fischer/Shull Collection, with an emphasis on works that provide profound commentary on American race and gender relations.
