The exhibit, called “A Case of Wisconsin’s Finest: New Acquisitions from the MillerCoors Collection,” features paintings in oil, watercolor and graphite and serigraphs in mixed-media, silk-screen, aqua-tint and lithographs.

The artists include Robert Burkert, Warrington Colescott, John Colt, Peggy Thurston Farrell, Earl Kittleson, Robert von Neumann, Frances Myers, Francisco Mora, Marko Spalatin, Helmut Summ, Evelyn Patricia Terry, Arthur Thrall and Tom Uttech.

The exhibit opens Wednesday, Aug. 4, 2010, and runs through December.
