  • 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
  • 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.
  • Nomad, 1963

    James Rosenquist

    What appears to be a collage of unrelated images from advertisements and everyday photographs fills the surface of this large-scale horizontally oriented painting. A massive bowl of spaghetti and meatballs in the bottom right, a gray picnic table slightly above center, and three ballerina legs paired with the words NEW and Oxy at bottom left. A paint-splatted plastic bag tied at the bottom is suspended from the top-left corner of the canvas; a pile of paint-splattered wood scraps lies on the floor below.
  • Le Christ jaune (The Yellow Christ), 1889

    Paul Gauguin

    Le Christ jaune (The Yellow Christ)
  • La voix des airs (The Voice of Space), 1928

    René Magritte

    La voix des airs (The Voice of Space)
  • Dialogue I, 1960

    Adolph Gottlieb

    A rectangular white canvas sits horizontally. In the top-right corner, there is a large black circle; a large red circle of roughly equal size is adjacent to the black dot, toward the center of the canvas. Beneath these dots are energetic and erratic swirls of black paint with splatter and drips on their edges.
  • The Coming Storm, 1878

    George Inness, Sr.

    The Coming Storm
  • 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.
  • La Fumée (Smoke), 1912

    Fernand Léger

    La Fumée (Smoke)
  • Soft Manhattan #1 (Postal Zones), 1966

    Claes Oldenburg

    The overall shape of this wall-mounted sculpture is similar to the outline of the island of Manhattan as it might appear on a map. The sculpture is made up of roughly thirty-five beige, tan, brown, and gray bags stacked together. These bags are shaped and positioned to mirror the outlines of the city’s postal zones.
