Works on loan from Las Vegas collectors and signature pieces from the MGM Resorts Art Collection are on display at the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art through Feb. 15.
"Always More: Collecting in Vegas" represents a cross-section of 20th century and contemporary art from a variety of artists, including Diane Arbus, Takashi Murakami, Pablo Picasso, Richard Prince, Robert Rauschenberg, Kazuo Shiraga, Gary Simmons, Lorna Simpson, Rosemarie Trockel and Manolo Valdes.
Tarissa Tiberti, executive director of MGM Resorts Art & Culture, and Heather Harmon, a Las Vegas-based private art advisor and strategist, co-curated the exhibition.
"Las Vegas is a city rooted in history and culture. Art has been and continues to be an essential part of that story," Tiberti said. "At MGM Resorts, we value the fact that art is truly part of our DNA, and we strive to achieve a cohesive blend of entertainment, culture and luxury for our visitors. Showcasing our community and its collections seemed to be a great opportunity for the reopening of Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art."
Masks are required to enter, and distancing is encouraged with reminders throughout the space. Guests should purchase their tickets online or via QR code on their mobile device. Printed material will not be available, and guests are invited to view the exhibition brochure online.
