    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
  • The Coming Storm, 1878

    George Inness, Sr.

    The Coming Storm
  • Piano Piece, 1993

    Nam June Paik

    At the heart of this sculpture are thirteen boxy television sets of different sizes stacked atop of an upright player piano. Some screens livestream the moving keys as recorded by a video camera on a tripod set up in front of the piano while others show prerecorded footage of hands playing a piano. A white stool and a small spotlight on a tripod illuminating the keyboard are also set up in front of the piano.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 1957-D-No. 1, 1957

    Clyfford Still

    Yellow, jagged-edged forms tear through portions of this mostly matte black canvas. The largest of these forms runs the full height of the painting near its right edge. Each of the yellow streaks includes small areas of white, which most appear in the center of the form, flanked by larger areas of yellow. Three small patches of unpainted canvas are visible near the bottom-left corner.
  • Elke-Akt 2, 1976

    Georg Baselitz

    An upside-down, loosely painted image of a seated woman fill this vertically oriented painting. The woman’s face, near the bottom center of the canvas, is quite legible, but her form progressively becomes more abstract toward her feet at the upper right of the canvas. The confident, gray strokes that define her outline are filled with white and occasional rose hues; the background is also predominately white.
  • Music and Literature, 1878

    William Michael Harnett

    Music and Literature
  • Return of the Prodigal Son, 1967

    Romare Howard Bearden

    Fragments of printed images are collaged together and supplemented with areas of paint to shape the three figures that dominate this composition. The face of the left-most figure is the best defined; he stares back at the viewer, and his lips are twisted upward in a wry grin. With his left arm, he pulls the shorter figure at center toward him in an embrace. From the right edge of the canvas, a third figure appears in profile carrying a candle lamp.
  • Abstraktes Bild (Abstract Painting), 1977

    Gerhard Richter

    Three light-colored abstract forms, resembling zoomed-in and blurry details of paint strokes, stand out against this painting’s dark brown and green background. One thin stripe extends the height of the canvas; it is white at top and gradually gradates to red at the bottom. A second, thicker stripe in gray topped with white extends from the center of the right edge and appears to overlap the vertical stripe. The end of a third stripe, similar in shape and color to the second stipe, appears in the upper-left
