On Sunday, Sept. 22, the Anderson Collection at Stanford University will host a 10th-anniversary celebration featuring live music, performances, interactive art activities, and short talks from Stanford art history graduate students about two new landmark anniversary exhibitions. The festivities are scheduled from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

"Bringing It Home," running through Feb. 16, 2025, in the first-floor Wisch Family Gallery, recreates the Anderson family's kitchen with artwork by artists they knew and admired, including Philip Guston, Frank Stella, and Josef Albers. The family home was a vibrant nexus for art discussions and shared meals, fostering a rich tapestry of community and conversation. While artwork was installed in every room, the kitchen was where the family started each day and shared space with personally significant artworks.

"An Expanded Lens," on display from Sept. 22 through Aug. 17, 2025, occupies the lobby and the entire second floor. This exhibition showcases the voices and curatorial collaboration of Stanford art history PhD candidates Emily Chun, Christian Gonzalez Ho, and Dejan Vasic. These students took personal approaches to arranging and interpreting artworks based on themes that include perception, geographic influence, and questions of meaning and embodiment. Contemporary loans installed alongside permanent collection works invite discovery and include paintings, sculptures, and videos by Tauba Auerbach, Nick Cave, Mary Corse, Frederick Eversley, Liam Everett, Claire Falkenstein, Julie Mehretu, Yvonne Jacquette, and Ed Ruscha.
