  • Reclining Figure with Pink Rocks, 1942

    Henry Moore

    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
  • La Musique, 1939

    Henri Matisse

    Two women look out toward the viewer from this brightly colored painting. The artist depicted these women using simple, flat shapes with dark outlines. The woman in a caramel colored dress at left sits on a floor cushion next to sheet music. The woman at right wears a marine blue jumpsuit with yellow triangles at the bottom of the legs. She has one foot on the floor and one on the couch on which she sits while playing guitar. A red tile floor contrasts with a black wall decorated with large green leaves.
  • Alpha, 1960

    Morris Louis

    Stripes of orange, black, yellow, blue, and red stream from the left and right sides of this large, horizontally oriented abstract painting. The stripes are thickest near the top of the canvas and grow thinner as they reach the bottom. A large expanse of raw canvas yawns between these colored passages.
  • Traits, plans, profondeur (Lines, Planes, Depth), ca. 1920-1922

    František Kupka

    Traits, plans, profondeur (Lines, Planes, Depth)
  • Civil Tapestry 5, 2012

    Theaster Gates

    This large-scale wall-mounted sculpture features forty-one sections of fire hose of equal size laid vertically side-by-side. From left to right, the sections of fire hose progressively appear more worn. The dominant color of the fabric gradually transitions from yellow to tones of gray. Some sections of the fire hose are stamped with black letters spelling out the original manufacturer specifications.
  • Over the Edge, 1992

    Peter Halley

    A light gray-green square sits slightly above center and fills much of this square canvas. L shapes of varying widths in cream, burnt orange, black, and mustard yellow extend from the square into the taupe-colored margins above and to the left and right of the square. Two additional brighter yellow L shapes, one dramatically thicker than the other, extend from the square into the burgundy-colored margin below the square.
  • Composition, ca. 1918-1920

    Alexander Rodchenko

    Composition
  • Hotel Lobby, 1950

    Max Beckmann

    More than a dozen figures crowd this canvas. Four appear to be seated around a table in the center and the rest appear to be standing elsewhere in the room. The figures’ features are abstracted, exaggerated, and outlined with thick black lines filled with a range of shades of muted russet, turquoise, pink, and green. The black frame of what appears to be a French door interrupts the right third of the composition.
  • Sculpture classique (Classical Sculpture), 1964

    Jean (Hans) Arp

    The gently curving contours of this white marble sculpture suggest a head, shoulders, and hips. The slim vertical form stands on top of and is contiguous with a cylindrical base.
  • Yellow Movie 2/23-24/73, 1973

    Tony Conrad

    A large, white, horizontally oriented rectangle, edged by a thick, black outline, sits in the center of a sheet of dusty rose colored paper. The top and bottom edges of the paper are jagged, suggesting it was torn from a roll.
