Before then, a f ew industrious daredevils in Marin County, California, built custom bikes to zoom around the mountainous terrain where they lived. These visionary individuals combined engineering ingenuity with an artistic eye, using f ound parts to create durable bicycles that could withstand the bumps and tumbles of downhill racing. This summer, some of these early mountain bik es, on loan from the Monkey Wrench collection, will be on view in Sheldon 's Great Hall.

Each work in the exhibitio n was created and acquired after 1960.\n\nThe exhibition reflects art mov ements and trends from this period as well as museum directions in collec ting. The exhibition highlights important gifts to the museum and draws a ttention to areas of strength in its holdings. The installation also cele brates new acquisitions and important works that have not recently been o n view.\n\nIn honor of Sheldon's 50th Anniversary and the 125th Anniversa ry of the Sheldon Art Association, the SAA and the museum purchased a sig nificant work by a major artist. The selection, unveiled on Friday, Septe mber 7th, is "Invocation" by Lee Krasner. This important painting, probab ly begun in the late 1960s, exemplifies Krasner’s transition in style f rom using expansive gestural brushstrokes to incorporating more tightly d efined graphic elements such as lines and disks.
