Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Cupid as Link Boy, 1774

    Joshua Reynolds

    Cupid as Link Boy
  • Man with Dog, 1953

    Francis Bacon

    A muscular white dog on a chain leash and the lower legs of its owner are visible beneath a dark blue trapezoid that fills the upper quarter of this vertically oriented canvas. The pair stand on sidewalk abutting a stretch of road perforated by a storm drain. The dog’s head and tail are lowered, and its front two legs extended as if caught in the moment springing forward. The artist’s palette of black, beige, and grey conveys a dark and tense atmosphere.
  • Le Christ jaune (The Yellow Christ), 1889

    Paul Gauguin

    Le Christ jaune (The Yellow Christ)
  • 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.
  • Nocturne—Orangerie Staircase, Versailles, 1908

    Edward Jean Steichen

    Nocturne—Orangerie Staircase, Versailles
  • Year of Meteors, 1961

    Robert Indiana

    At the center of the painting is a blue, eight-pointed star against a green background within two concentric circles of stenciled, all-capitalized text on white. The circle within the smaller of these rings is green, and the background visible outside the larger of these rings is blue. The text in the smaller of these rings is blue and the text in the larger of these rings is green.
  • Corazón de roca con sangre (Heart of Rock with Blood), 1975

    Ana Mendieta

    First of two images. Still from a video of the artist naked on the banks of a river, which is just visible in the upper-right corner of the image. She kneels on the leaf-covered ground, staring at the silhouette of a female figure dug into the earth in shallow relief.
  • No. 15, 1952

    Ad Reinhardt

    No. 15
  • 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.
