Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Crowded Hearts, 1987

    John Chamberlain

    Crumpled and compacted pieces of red, silver, and white metal from old cars form freestanding, pillar-like shape. The metal is mostly shiny but is battered and rusted in some places.
  • The Street, Fifth Avenue, 1900-1901 (printed 1903-1904)

    Alfred Stieglitz

    The Street, Fifth Avenue
  • Corazón de roca con sangre (Heart of Rock with Blood), 1975

    Ana Mendieta

    First of two images. Still from a video of the artist naked on the banks of a river, which is just visible in the upper-right corner of the image. She kneels on the leaf-covered ground, staring at the silhouette of a female figure dug into the earth in shallow relief.
  • Le Canigou, 1921

    Juan Gris

    Le Canigou
  • La Fumée (Smoke), 1912

    Fernand Léger

    La Fumée (Smoke)
  • Son, 1984

    Francesco Clemente

    This vertically oriented painting features portions of a dark tree trunk, branches, and leaves set against patches of light gray sky. Hanging from select branches are four large yellow orbs resembling suns or planets. T-shaped fasteners connect these hanging shapes to the tree.
  • Janet, 1992

    Chuck Close

    This large-scale portrait is painted in grayscale with a nearly all black background. A grid pattern covers the entire surface, and diamonds, ovals, circles, and other geometric shapes fill each square. From a distance, these patterned coalesce into a woman’s face and upper shoulders; the effect is similar to a pixelated photograph. The woman has short hair, cat-eyed glasses, dangly earrings, and she wears a shirt with a rounded collar.
  • Reclining Figure, 1935-1936

    Henry Moore

    This wooden sculpture could abstractly resemble a reclining female body. The dark brown wood is polished to reveal the wood grain and knots throughout the form. The figure’s legs seem to be gently bent, and she appears to be resting on her elbows, with her head propped upright. The artist left the torso as an empty space, allowing viewers to see through the sculpture.
  • Die Milchstrasse (The Milky Way), 1985-1987

    Anselm Kiefer

    A field of scrubby grass fills nearly the whole of this painting, except for a line of trees in the distance and a narrow strip of sky. The densely textured surface is made up of thick brushstrokes in shades of black and brown with a thin white horizontal swathe cutting across the center of the work. A triangular-shaped piece of lead dangles to the left of the painting’s center, supported by copper wires attached to the painting’s top corners. A second piece of lead is mounted near the lower-right corner.
