Works by Andy Warhol, Diego Rivera, and others will be on view over the next two years
OKLAHOMA CITY (January 30, 2026) — The Oklahoma City Museum of Art (OKCMOA) today announced a lineup of artworks on loan from Art Bridges that will be on view at various periods starting this fall and running through fall 2027. This series of loans will include works by Andy Warhol, Richard Diebenkorn, Diego Rivera, and other well-known and influential artists.
The first of these artworks are now on view in the Museum's Portraiture gallery and the permanent collection installation Postwar Abstraction. One of the artists featured is T.C. Cannon, an Oklahoma painter and printmaker. Cannon’s 1975 painting Grandmother Gestating Father and the Washita River Runs Ribbon-Like is on view next to Laughing Indian, by Cannon’s mentor Fritz Scholder. In Postwar Abstraction, Richard Diebenkorn’s Cityscape #3 from 1963 will replace Albuquerque, a work that was part of the Oklahoma Art Center’s 1968 purchase of the Washington Gallery of Modern Art Collection.
“We’re very excited to bring each of these works to the Oklahoma City community,” said OKCMOA’s President and CEO Michael Anderson, PhD. “Starting this series with two works that have a particular connection to the Museum is especially meaningful.”
In February, Njideka Akunyili Crosby’s mixed-media work I Refuse to Be Invisible from 2010 will be on view in the Storytelling in Art gallery, located on the second floor. The same month, visitors can look forward to the installation The City as Canvas, opening February 7. This gallery will feature the 1949 painting Bronzeville at Night by Archibald John Motley Jr., an artist associated with but not formally part of the Harlem Renaissance movement.
This summer, a new installation will feature Andy Warhol’s Coca-Cola [3] from 1962, which marked the artist’s first foray into his signature Pop Art style, and Keith Haring’s Self Portrait from 1985. Alongside Crosby’s I Refuse to Be Invisible, Diego Rivera’s La ofrenda (The Offering) from 1931 will be on view in the Storytelling in Art gallery beginning fall 2026. Each of the Art Bridges loans will be on loan for one year, with the exception of Haring’s Self Portrait.
In November of last year, OKCMOA members at the Fellow, Friend, and Sustainer level were invited to a behind-the-scenes talk on the Art Bridges loans.
