Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Exuberance, 1955

    Hans Hofmann

    Multidirectional, abstract brushstrokes animate the surface of this vertically oriented canvas. Dark blues, greens, and blacks contrast with passages of pale yellow and red. Two areas of red at top right and toward the bottom of the lower edge of the canvas seem to pulsate forward. At top left, a dark brown arc that looks like the letter C is surrounded with a dark rectangular outline.
  • Born, 2002

    Kiki Smith

    A life-sized nude female figure emerges head-first from the rear of a standing deer. Only her feet remain inside the animal, and the rest of her body is angled toward the floor, with her left shoulder making contact. She cranes her neck slightly to gaze back toward the deer, who has large ears and small antler nubs. The bronze surface of the sculpture is smooth and has a dark uniform patina, making it appear black.
  • The Cone, 1960

    Alexander Calder

    A large playful sculpture made of thin sheets of black metal forming a partially open cone that stands on its circular base. A thin metal rod is balanced across the cone’s pointed top. Numerous interconnected wires and rods, each of which ends in a small white metal circle, hang from one side of the rod. The weight of the many wires and circles on one side of the central rod is counterbalanced and held in equilibrium by a single red circle on the rod’s other end.
  • Femme cousant (Woman Sewing), ca. 1879

    Berthe Morisot

    The profile of a young woman bent intensely over the sewing work she holds in her hands fills the foreground of this portrait-oriented painting. Her caramel-colored hair is pulled back from her face in a bun, and she wears a dark green dress topped with a white lace shawl. In the background, a white urn and a wooden box open to reveal its red interior sit on top of a table covered in a cream colored and floral patterned cloth.
  • Drift 2, 1966

    Bridget Riley

    Drift No. 2
  • Return of the Prodigal Son, 1967

    Romare Howard Bearden

    Fragments of printed images are collaged together and supplemented with areas of paint to shape the three figures that dominate this composition. The face of the left-most figure is the best defined; he stares back at the viewer, and his lips are twisted upward in a wry grin. With his left arm, he pulls the shorter figure at center toward him in an embrace. From the right edge of the canvas, a third figure appears in profile carrying a candle lamp.
  • Peaceable Kingdom, ca. 1848

    Edward Hicks

    Peaceable Kingdom
  • Les Arbres (The Trees), ca. 1906

    André Derain

    A vibrantly colored landscape with several slim-trunked trees and mountains in the background fills this canvas. The sky is a light yellow while the ground is a slightly darker, sandy hue. The artist used cool blues with patches of crimson to depict the mountains, and warm reds, yellows, and oranges to emphasize tall, thin tree trunks in the foreground. Shadows fall diagonally from the trees toward the right hand corner of the painting where the artist’s small, blue signature rests.
  • Sky Cathedral, 1958

    Louise Nevelson

    Sky Cathedral
