    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
  • 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.
  • Untitled (take a giant step), 2001

    Lorna Simpson

    Untitled (take a giant step)
  • Round Trip, 1957

    Helen Frankenthaler

    Round Trip
  • June 4-52 (tableform), 1952

    Ben Nicholson

    A series of roughly rectangular shapes of pale blue, green, yellow, and white layer over and under each other across the surface of this portrait-oriented oil painting. A loose geometric patterning in thin black pencil overlays some of the shapes near the bottom center. A small, bright red triangle pops out from near the bottom left corner.
  • Sun and Rocks, 1918-1950

    Charles Ephraim Burchfield

    Sun and Rocks
  • Chatham XI: Blue Yellow, 1971

    Ellsworth Kelly

    This artwork is made up of two separate, rectangular panels installed adjacent to one another at a right angle. The top panel is horizontally oriented and a solid dark blue color. Aligned underneath the left side of this panel is a second, smaller panel that is vertically oriented and a solid yellow color.
  • State, 1978

    Robert Ryman

    State
  • Wild Indigo, 1967

    Kenneth Noland

    Twenty-eight stripes of different colors and widths run the width of this horizontally oriented painting. The very clearly defined bands are separated by pencil-thin stripes of unpainted canvas. While the colors used vary, they are mostly distinct hues of red, green, and blue.
  • 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.
