Exhibition75th Anniversary: New Visions for the Permanent Collection / by Susan Jamison

My work is included in an exhibition at the Taubman Museum of Art titled 75th Anniversary: New Visions for the Permanent Collection. The exhibition will be on display from March 6- August 16. 2026.

From the museum’s website: For 75 years, the Museum’s Permanent Collection has been shaped by landmark gifts, sustained generosity, and careful stewardship. What began as a regional commitment to art has grown into a collection defined by depth, continuity, and evolving perspective.

This exhibition reflects both history and momentum. At its core are gifts made in honor of the Museum’s 75th Anniversary — works that expand the Collection across media, cultures, and time periods. Installed in dialogue with longstanding holdings, these new acquisitions illuminate established strengths while opening new areas of inquiry.

My painting “Repair Me” from 2006, on exhibit, is one of five of my paintings that were generously gifted to the Taubman Museum by Linda Webb in honor of the museum’s 75th Anniversary.

Other works of interest in the exhibition include those by Judy Chicago, Vadis Turner, and Michele Oka Doner, pictured below.

I’m honored to have my work in the permanent collection of the Taubman Museum, which serves the region of Southwest Virginia, where I have made my home for over 30 years.
