    Reclining Figure with Pink Rocks
  • 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.

Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Karma, 2010

    Do Ho Suh

    Against the white marbled columned exterior of the museum, a life-size muscular male nude, his arms hanging down on either side of his body, stands upright on a metal base. Sitting on his shoulders are a series of identical male nudes squatting one on top of the another, each one smaller than the one below. Each figure holds his hands over the eyes of the figure beneath him.
  • L'Age d'Airain (Age of Bronze), 1875-1876 (cast executed 1911)

    Auguste Rodin

    This life-sized, muscular nude is captured as if in mid-stride, with his right hand raised to clasp his scalp and his left hand raised in a fist. His mouth is open, and his facial features contorted in what appears to be pain or anger.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Dream Displacement, 1976

  • Street Music, 1950

  • No title, 1970

  • Untitled, 1960

    Lee Bontecou

    Untitled
  • Rue de village à Marlotte (Village Street in Marlotte), 1866

    Alfred Sisley

    This horizontally oriented canvas features a loosely painted rural scene of several old stone houses and a dirt road running between them. Tall trees rise above behind the roofs. The grey and somber light that pervades the scene overall streams from a cloudy sky in the top quarter of the canvas. In the painting’s middle ground, a human figure wearing a blue shirt and light-colored trousers raises an axe above his head in order to chop a large branch at his feet.
