The Exhibition

The December show is not a concession to the season. It is an argument that the best gifts are objects made with intention — objects that hold a room, objects the recipient will look at for thirty years. Every work in the December program is selected for the collector who wants to give something that matters rather than something that is merely appropriate.

The full 46-artist JG roster contributes to the December program. Kathe Fraga's lacquerware panels at gift-scale price points. Julie Anne Mann's bronze sculptures that work in any room. Works from across the collection, selected with the specific logic of giving: what does this person's home need that they have not yet bought for themselves?

The Full JG Roster
All Mediums · All Price Points
The December program draws from the full roster — 46 artists across painting, sculpture, printmaking, mixed media, and photography. Works selected specifically for the collector who wants to give something that holds a room for decades rather than something that fills a gift bag.
Kathe Fraga
Lacquerware · Mixed Media · Gift-Scale Works
Fraga contributes works from her lacquerware series — technically demanding, visually distinctive, and available at price points that make them among the most collectible gift-scale works in the program. Her panels have ended up in more collections as gifts than any other work in the gallery.
Julie Anne Mann
Bronze Sculpture · Natural Materials
Mann's bronze sculptures are among the most giftable major works in the collection — finished, complete, self-contained objects that work in any room. Her work in the December program ranges from gift-scale pieces to major acquisitions.
