Before his death in 1994, Frederick Weisman was a flamboyant art collector, jetting around the world in a private jet decorated by artist Ed Ruscha, and sitting for an Andy Warhol portrait. After his death, Weisman's $250-million estate has become the focus of a no-holds-barred legal battle between his heirs, his last wife, and the probate judge. But while that's being sorted out, Weisman's more important legacy is a series of generous gifts to art museums in New Orleans, San Diego, Minneapolis, and at the Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art at Pepperdine University. This simple but spacious 3,000-square-foot facility features changing exhibits that draw from Weisman's significant collection of contemporary art and travelling exhibitions. Past shows have included the work of Marsden Hartley, Italian neo-expressionist Sandro Chia, and World War II posters.

A late-summer 1998 exhibition and installation by Los Angeles artist DeLoss McGraw was a virtuoso set of works on paper, and assemblages inspired by such authors as William Blake, John Steinbeck, Gabriel García Márquez, Lewis Carroll, Mary Shelley and poets W.D. Snodgrass and Bart Thurber.

Exhibits: Changing exhibitions of contemporary and historic art by California and national artists.
