As the second guest curator of an installation in the Nancy and Edwin Marks Gallery, leading Dutch designer Hella Jongerius focused on the Museum’s unparalleled collection of samplers—embroidered notes made by needlewomen used as means of recording and transmitting designs, knowledge, and skills.
Hella Jongerius Selects: Works from the Permanent Collection was made possible in part by the Mondriaan Foundation and the Consulate-General of The Netherlands in New York. Additional support for interpretive materials was provided by the Getty Foundation.
