Brooklyn Museum acquisitions add Campos-Pons and Grafton Tyler Brown

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Maya Pontone’s Hyperallergic report identified Grafton Tyler Brown’s western landscapes and María Magdalena Campos-Pons’s multipart Polaroid work among more than 300 Brooklyn Museum acquisitions, alongside works by Twins Seven Seven and Whitfield Lovell. Made between December 2022 and October 2023, the additions were intended to broaden American and international representation before a gallery reinstallation. The report documented collecting as an active revision of museum narratives, with Black American and Caribbean practices entering that institutional conversation.
