In conjunction with Since Unveiling: Selected Acquisitions of a Decade, The Broad presents an Un-Private Collection conversation with Broad collection artist Nathaniel Mary Quinn and Donna Augustin-Quinn, actress, director, writer, and producer.

Quinn grew up in Chicago and had a childhood interlaced with experiences of poverty, abandonment, and loss. In his art, he collects materials from many sources—the internet, magazines, and old family albums—to create abstracted faces of those he has lost. The resulting works of charcoal, gouache, and pastel resemble collage but are rendered by hand.

Quinn's Pure Insecurity (2019) and C’mo’ And Walk With Me (2019), recently acquired by the museum, are featured in Since Unveiling: Selected Acquisitions of a Decade, a new collection exhibition opening on Saturday, November 20, 2021.
