Art Exhibition: "Full Disclosure Selections from the Thomas-Suwall Collection" @ Plains Art Museum

Plains Art Museum

April 20, 2024 - September 7, 2024

William and Anna Jane Schlossman Gallery

Rob and Eric Thomas-Suwall – known online by their moniker, The Icy Gays or @theicygays – acquired their first artwork, Corydon Cowansage’s Stairs #3, seven years ago after discovering it online. To call this purchase life-changing would be an understatement. Becoming “art collectors” was never a goal for the couple, but this painting, with its surreal abstraction of nature, became the point of origin for their committed discovery and support of emerging queer and female artists which would ultimately grow into a landmark collection.
