Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Untitled, 1998-2002

    Gregory Crewdson

    This large-scale color photograph captures a mysterious scene staged in a domestic bathroom, which is presented in cross-section. In the center of the frame, a white man, wearing only briefs, is bent over on the floor of a shower stall. His right arm reaches through the drain and is visible in the dark crawlspace below floor level where a pipe would normally be connected. The dim light filtering through a small window on the left evokes a sense of twilight.
  • Untitled, 1969

    Donald Judd

    Ten identical boxes industrially fabricated out of galvanized iron and orange Plexiglas protrude seemingly weightlessly from the wall in a vertical stack. Each box is separated from the unit above and below by a space equal to its height. When lit from above, the sculpture casts a dramatic pattern of orange and gray shadows on the adjacent walls and floor.
  • Petit nu bleu (Little Blue Nude), ca. 1878-1879

    Pierre-Auguste Renoir

    A young white-skinned woman, nude to the waist, sits on the grassy bank of a body of water in the center of this vertically oriented painting. A blue cloth or portion of a garment with white edges loosely covers her lap. She grasps her left ankle, which rests on her right knee, with both hands, and she gazes toward the bottom left of the canvas. The paint was applied quickly and loosely with visible brushstrokes.
  • Music and Literature, 1878

    William Michael Harnett

    Music and Literature
  • Paysans dans les champs, Éragny (Peasants in the Fields, Éragny), 1890

    Camille Pissarro

    A landscape of recently cleared fields and grass covered hills beneath a sunny blue sky filled with white clouds fills this horizontally oriented painting. In the bottom left foreground, a woman holding a basket in her right hand watches as a man thrusts a shovel into the ground. A horse-drawn wagon approaches in the distance, and a child sits in the field toward the right edge of the painting. The entire scene is rendered in individual dots of paint in deep blue, violet, green, orange, and other shades.
