Rubell Family Collection
The Rubell Family Collection (RFC) is one of the leading collections of contemporary art in the world. Started in
1964, soon after Don and Mera Rubell were married, the collecting group expanded some years later when their
children Jason and Jennifer, then quite young, joined their parents in buying and collecting art. Recently Jason’s
wife Michelle joined the collecting team alongside her husband. The family’s extensive collection of works dates
from the 1960s to the present.
The collection is housed and exhibited in a converted 45,000-square-foot former Drug Enforcement Agency

exhibitions of work by such prominent artists as Maurizio Cattelan, Marlene Dumas, David Hammons, Keith Haring,
Damien Hirst, Anselm Kiefer, Jeff Koons, Kerry James Marshall, Paul McCarthy, Takashi Murakami, Neo Rauch,
Charles Ray, Gregor Schneider, Cindy Sherman, Rosemarie Trockel, Luc Tuymans, ...

Approximately three years ago, they found there was a critical mass of emerging African-American artists, and began the process of understanding what seemed to be a new movement. When they asked these artists about their influences, they heard some of the same names over and over: Robert Colescott, Renée Green, David Hammons, Barkley Hendricks, Kerry James Marshall, Gary Simmons, Lorna Simpson, Kara Walker, and Carrie Mae Weems. They had been collecting almost all of those artists for decades. Perfect conditions for a new exhibition.
As they explored the possibility of a show, they were deeply influenced by a series of outstanding exhibitions around the country focusing on African-American artists, inc...[ Read all ]
