The David Winton Bell Gallery is a contemporary art gallery at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The gallery was established in 1971 through a donation from the Bell family.[1] The Bell Gallery serves as a hub of contemporary art within the university community and beyond, offering a diverse range of exhibitions, programs, and events.[2][3] It is housed in the Albert and Vera List Art Center, and is part of the Brown Arts Institute.[4]
Each year, the gallery features four to five major shows, as well as dozens of student exhibitions.[5] Recent exhibitions have featured work by Elisabeth Subrin,[6] Lisa Reihana,[7] Melvin Edwards,[8] Wendy Edwards,[9] and Carrie Mae Weems.[10]
