The Norton Museum in West Palm Beach, Florida, have announced that their collection has grown due to 80 acquisition and promised gifts.

According to the article linked above:

Highlights include one of Fred Eversley’s parabolic lens sculptures; a 1981 painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat; Mary Cassatt’s drawing Mother Jeanne Nursing Her Baby (pictured above); a trio of works (a film, a painting, and a sculpture) by Rashid Johnson; and three new blue-and-white porcelain objects from the Qing dynasty.

As it happens, the Norton Museum is one of the few American museums these days that do not have all of their collections published online in some form another. Let's hope a generous donor will be able to gift them this technological ability in the near future!
