This exhibition was funded in part by the City of San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture and the County of San Diego Community Enhancement Program.
This exhibition of 103 vessels and figurative pieces, one for each year of her life, was personally selected by Beatrice Wood. These were her favorite pieces, which she called "my Museum Collection"; and they had never before been exhibited in their entirety. Additional pieces were from the San Diego Museum of Art and private collections.
Playing continuously in the gallery during the exhibition were the films _BEATRICE WOOD: MAMA OF DADA, and SPECIAL PEOPLE: BEATRICE WOOD – Her Life Is Her Art._
