EMMA – Espoo Museum of Modern Art is seeking works by Howard Smith

The first retrospective exhibition of American-born artist Howard Smith in the United States will open at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2025. The exhibition will be produced in collaboration with EMMA – Espoo Museum of Modern Art.

The Palm Springs Art Museum exhibition will feature a wide selection of Howard Smith’s works, both in terms of time and technique. The time span will extend from the 1960s to the early 2000s. EMMA will collaborate by offering its expertise on Smith and his relationship to the Finnish art scene. EMMA’s collection includes serigraphs as well as large public artworks by Smith, and he will also be featured in a future solo exhibition at EMMA. 

If you own any collages, textiles, or early works by Howard Smith from the 1960s, please contact Tuomas Laulainen, curator of collections at EMMA, at tuomas.laulainen@emmamuseum.fi by 31 August 2024.
