GROSSMONT COLLEGE – Where in San Diego County would you have to go to see in one place works by Pablo Picasso, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, Hamada, and Tom Holland?
Maybe the San Diego Museum of Art? The Timken Art Gallery? The Contemporary Museum of Art in La Jolla? Or perhaps you think you might have to drive up to Los Angeles, to the J. Paul Getty Museum?
The answer is that you don’t have to go anywhere but to the Hyde Art Gallery right here on campus.
From August 22 through September 15, works from the college’s permanent collection will be displayed, including pieces by each of those named
artists. The gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Monday, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Fridays.
Ben Aubert, the gallery’s curator, said the special showing of “selections from our permanent collection” is intended to honor Grossmont College’s 50th
anniversary.
