The Anderson Graphic Arts Collection

Exhibitions in the Anderson Gallery of Graphic Art at the de Young celebrate the 1996 gift of more than 573 American prints and 82 monotypes to the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco from the collection of Harry W. and Mary Margaret Anderson and their daughter, Mary Patricia Anderson Pence. The Anderson Graphic Arts Collection spans over thirty years of print production, from 1962 to 1999, with outstanding examples of print processes—woodcut, intaglio, lithography, screenprint, and monotype—from major American fine-art presses. Artists include Jasper Johns, Frank Stella, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Motherwell, Claes Oldenburg, Wayne Thiebaud, Helen Frankenthaler, and Jim Dine. Since 1997 the Fine Arts Museums have provided a series of exhibitions from the collections as well as interpretive publications and programs in order to share this important educational and art historical resource with museum audiences.
