The Kresge Foundation Gallery and the Andre Z. Pascal Gallery are in the Angelica and Russ Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts. The Kresge and Pascal Galleries are postmodern facilities designed by the firm of Hardy, Holtzman, and Pfeiffer.

Renowned artists shown in the gallery include Henry Darger, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Lady Pink, Cindy Sherman, Kehinde Wiley, Yoko Ono, Luis Cruz Azaceta, Whitfield Lovell, Alighiero Boetti, Paul Cadmus, Trevor Paglen, Loretta Lux, Chris Verene, Ceal Floyer, Hector Hyppolite, Mona Hatoum, Robert Rauschenberg, Ming Fay, Ant Farm, Mel Edwards, Nalini Malani, Kara Walker, Sophie Calle, Sally Mann, Peter Schumann, Liza Lou, Allora & Calzadilla, Radcliffe Bailey, Catherine Opie, Cathy de Monchaux, Howard Finster, Duane Michaels, Sherrie Levine, Tony Oursler, Nancy Spero, Nairy Baghramian, Andy Warhol, David Wajnarowicz, Lalla Essaydi, Michael Snow, Lynda Benglis, Jimmie Durham, Louise Bourgeois, and Wangechi Mutu.
Angelica and Russ Berrie provided the lead gift in a campaign that raised funds from corporations and individuals, College employees and alumni, state and federal government, and private foundations. Toward the end of the campaign a challenge grant of $475,000 from the Kresge Foundation assisted the College in raising the balance required to complete the project. The Pascal Gallery was funded by Gregory Z. Bukstein, a beloved and generous benefactor of the College, in memory of his twin brother. Their book, Survival: The Story of Two Brothers, recounts the story of the Bukstein brothers’ early childhood in Poland, exile to Siberia, survival during the Holocaust, life as refugees and pioneers in the then newly-created state of Israel and their eventual emigration to the United States.

On Wednesday, April 29th, the Visual Arts Senior Thesis Exhibition ORIGINES NOSTRAE goes on view in the Berrie Center Kresge and Pascal Galleries, with an Opening Reception from 5-7 p.m. Â The exhibition features 28 graduating Visual Arts students working in a variety of approaches including:Â drawing, painting, photography, animation, installation, mixed media, sculpture, and computer projection.Â
