This companion exhibition to Dan Budnik: Inside the Studios of Artists presented works of art from Kemper Museum’s Permanent Collection that were created by Abstract Expressionists and Pop artists working in New York City that Budnik photographed in the 1950s and 1960s. These works highlighted important themes, including an interest in pop culture, a focus on non-traditional art-making materials, and innovation with media.
