Chronostasia: Select Acquisitions 2020鈥�2025
Chronostasis is a perceptual illusion in which time appears to slow after shifting one鈥檚 attention. Chronostasia likewise extends and recirculates time. Comprising over sixty additions to the Loeb鈥檚 collection from 2020 through 2025, this exhibition approaches temporality through return, inheritance, motion, and seriality. Some works revisit the past鈥攁dapting its forms and disrupting its logics. Others offer ways of seeing that move beyond chronology: archives are brought to light, past to present, and time to scale.
The Loeb鈥檚 collection has not grown by linear design, but in intervals: through gifts, bequests, purchases, and recontextualizations. Chronostasia highlights acquisitions that broaden the museum鈥檚 holdings across media, histories, and geographies. Many of these works were acquired to expand representation and reshape the terms of inquiry, to rethink medium and narrative, and to reimagine what a collection holds.
