Quilts and Color the Pilgrim/Roy Collection is coming to the the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

“Quilts and Color” celebrates the vibrant color palette and inventive design seen in the acclaimed Pilgrim/Roy Quilt Collection. The exhibition features 60 distinctive quilts from the renowned collection and is the first to explore how, over five decades, trained artists Paul Pilgrim and Gerald Roy searched out and collected quilts with bold, eye-popping designs that echoed the work of mid-20th century Abstract Expressionist and Op Artists.

The exhibition opens April 6 and runs through June 27, 2014 at the Annn and Graham Gund Gallery (LG31).
