  • Portrait de Mlle Rose Caron (Portrait of Rose Caron), ca. 1892

    Edgar Degas

    A woman wearing a low-cut pink evening dress and elbow-length gloves sits at the center of this horizontally oriented painting. What appears to be a multicolored furred or feathered garment rests on the back of her red chair. Her face, oriented left, is largely obscured by shadow. She clutches a folded fan in her right hand and adjusts the top of her left hand. The entire scene is loosely painted in a palette dominated by dark greens and yellows.
  • The Messenger, 1996

    Bill Viola

    The first of three stills shows a nude man floating on his back in dark blue water, visible from the waist up. Light shines on his body from above, highlighting his face and part of his torso.
  • L'Objet invisible (Mains tenant le vide) [Invisible Object (Hands Holding the Void)], 1934 (cast executed 1935)

    Alberto Giacometti

    A life-sized bronze abstract female nude holds her hands placed in front of her chest, as if cradling an invisible sphere. She appears to be perched on a tall chair, which supports and frames the figure from behind. The facial features on her flat, round head are angular. Her long, skinny body terminates in long legs bent at the knee. The figure’s feet rest on a narrow rectangular shaped stool at the sculpture’s base.
  • Cinema, 1963

  • Electric, 1963

    Edward Ruscha

    The word “electric” in all capital, italicized letters spans across the center of this almost square canvas. The letters are painted in a gradient from bright yellow at the top to rich orange at the bottom, standing out in stark contrast against the solid deep blue background.
  • Dinamismo di un cane al guinzaglio (Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash), 1912
