John Waters '58 Art Collection Featured at the BMA

A new exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Art features 90 pieces from the personal collection of John Waters ‘58. “Coming Attractions: The John Waters Collection” includes creative and eclectic artwork that is part of a much larger collection which John is bequeathing to the Museum. This exhibit, open through April 16, 2023, showcases works by artists such as Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman, and Diane Arbus among others. A photograph by Peter Hujar called “Looking at Trash” is just one of the items on display. “This pile of garbage hangs in my living room, the most formal room in my house,” Waters said. “Trash can be beautiful. It can be elegant. That’s what this photograph is.”
