Miniatures/98 at the Albuquerque Museum

Andrew Benyei, Skinny Dip

Miniatures/98, October 4, 1998 through January 3, 1999 brings to Albuquerque 120 leading artists from around the United States. Works range from traditional to the abstract in this 8th annual exhibition and sale. All art pieces are for sale.

Proceeds help support the museum through its Foundation. Miniatures/98 is the Foundation's most successful fund-raising event. Curator and well-known New Mexico artist Betty Sabo says the show is so successful because the Foundation has "kept it fresh by bringing in new artists that the people of Albuquerque seldom get to see." This year artist Glenna Goodacre has two sculptures in the show.

The Albuquerque Museum is located on the east side of Old Town.
