The new show welcomes returning artists Bill Anton, Michael Coleman and Kyle Polzin, and newcomers Autumn Borts-Medlock, Steve Kestrel and Grant Redden. All of the artwork in the show will remain on view and available for purchase through March 22.

“Masters 2020 offers a glimpse into the ever-vibrant and dynamic world of Western American art,” said Amy Scott, the Autry’s Executive vice president for research and interpretation and the Marilyn B. and Calvin B. Gross curator of visual arts. “A range of stylistic traditions, from realism to impressionism and abstraction, now sit comfortably side by side. From classic frontier stories to contemporary Native visions, ‘Masters’ embraces a widening array of artists that together celebrate both the history and contemporary beauty of the West.”
