Drawn from gifts and promised gifts to GRAM’s collection, A Shared Vision: The Glen W. Johnson and Thomas P. Merchant Collection   brings together prints, photographs, and multiples from approximately 1960 to 2015 by artists such as Kara Walker, Lorna Simpson, John Baldessari, Robert Rauschenberg, Jenny Holzer, Alex Katz, Robert Motherwell, Andy Warhol, David Salle, and Michigan artist Michael Pfleghaar, among others. The installation highlights the collectors’ keen eye for visual language — where images, texts, and ideas intersect — across movements from modern and conceptual art to contemporary photography and abstraction.
