The gift includes letters, photographs, and ephemera relating to the gallery's American and British artists such as Gavin Fujita, David Hockney, Ed and Nancy Kienholz, R.B. Kitaj, Leon Kossoff, and Alison Saar.

I wonder who the Huntington hired to re-do their website and emails? The look (colors, layout) reminds me of something out of a non-profit based in, say, Fresno or Bakersfield.

Software for graphics (etc too) is now so sleek and versatile, that what was difficult to make look professional in the past now can be put together by students in a grade school.
No modern artist from California has seared into my memory his artistic vision more than Edward Kienholz, with his 1968 "The Portable War Memorial," now in the Museum Ludwig Köln (Cologne).
