Over the past 25 years, OMA has presented over 300 diverse and engaging exhibitions that reflect their core interest to explore the stories of Southern California artists. Legacy: 25 Years of Art and Community is a survey of artwork selected from many of OMA’s past exhibitions. Compelling pieces from landmark community-building exhibits such as Worn with Pride (2000), Chouinard: A Living Legacy (2001), Artifacts: Allied Craftsmen of San Diego (2018), Lowbrow Art: Nine San Diego Pop Surrealists (2009), and Masterpieces of San Diego Painting: Fifty Works from Fifty Years, 1900-1950 (2008), will tell the story of how a volunteer-based organization grew from its humble beginnings in 1997 to the cultural destination it is today. Featuring work by James Hubbell, Wendy Murayama, William Glen Crooks, Allison Renshaw, Italo Scanga, and Charles Arnoldi, among others, this exhibition will create new narratives while remembering the seminal role OMA has played in the history of contemporary art in our region.
