Contemporary Voices：Works from The UBS Art Collection presents the work of a broad range of American and European artists of the last half-cen-tury，providing an exceptional window into the artmaking of this period.What is today The UBS Art Collection was founded in the late 1960s by Donald B.Marron，former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the financial-services firm PaineWebber; when that company merged with UBS in zooo，their art collections merged as well.Now maintained by UBS，the collection has a distinguished history of public outreach; it maintains an active lending program and has toured major museums throughout the United States.Now forty-four works from the collection have become promised gifts to The Museum of Modern Art—one of the most generous gifts of art made by a corporation to a public institution.Contemporary Voices documents not only the works contained in that gift but a selection of additional works on loan from The UBS Art Collection.
