The Pacita Abad Exhibition opened at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis\, MN in 2023\, as the largest museum exhibit in the U.S. devoted to an Asian American female artist.  The exhibition traveled next to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It is currently on view at MoMA PS1 in New York\, then later this year\, travels to the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. \nDuring her career\, Abad created over 4\,500 artworks\, adapting the trapunto technique which give her paintings a beguiling\, sculptural appearance.  Her work—which has been exhibited in over 200 museums\, galleries and other venues\, around the world— is in public\, corporate and private art collections in over 70 countries.
