The inaugural exhibition of the Bell Gallery featured work from the collection of Albert and Vera List. After building an extensive collection of international sculpture of the fifties and sixties, the Lists began assembling an extensive collection of American art of the sixties. The exhibition presented more than twenty works from this period, including paintings by Helen Frankenthaler, Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Morris Louis, Agnes Martin, Kenneth Noland, Robert Rauschenberg, and Andy Warhol as well as sculptures by Lee Bontecou, Donald Judd, Marisol, Claes Oldenburg, and George Segal.
