Richard Diebenkorn, Artist, and Carey Stanton, Collector: Their Stanford Connection

July 23, 2008—November 9, 2008

This exhibition includes nearly 50 drawings, paintings, and prints by Richard Diebenkorn from the private collection of Carey Stanton.  The collection now belongs to the Santa Cruz Island Foundation, established by Stanton to administer his estate, which includes two thirds of Santa Cruz Island, located off the coast of Santa Barbara.  Diebenkorn and Stanton met as fellow students at Stanford University and as members of the fraternity Delta Kappa Epsilon, in 1940.  The exhibition also includes personal correspondence between the Diebenkorns and Stanton, Diebenkorn's designs for the Santa Cruz Island flag, and memorabilia in the form of photographs of the island terrain and ranch buildings.  Catalogue available.
