    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
  • L'Age d'Airain (Age of Bronze), 1875-1876 (cast executed 1911)

    Auguste Rodin

    This life-sized, muscular nude is captured as if in mid-stride, with his right hand raised to clasp his scalp and his left hand raised in a fist. His mouth is open, and his facial features contorted in what appears to be pain or anger.
  • Sentinel, 1978

    Anne Truitt

    The body of this tall, thin, rectangular wooden pillar is almost entirely white. Light gray stripes run along the length of each of its four corners, and the base of the sculpture is marked with a thin black band with a thin red line running through its center. The work sits directly on the floor.
  • 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.
  • New York Waterfront, 1938

    Stuart Davis

    Abstract shapes filled with solid areas of red, blue, white, and black paint float in a loosely linked cluster in the middle of this small beige canvas. Many of the shapes loosely resemble buildings, including a red structure with blue windows and tall black smokestacks at center, which sits beneath a white rectangle featuring the letters L and R in blue. A white shape with red edges at bottom resembles at boat while a patch of blue at bottom left may suggest water.
  • 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.
  • Born, 2002

    Kiki Smith

    A life-sized nude female figure emerges head-first from the rear of a standing deer. Only her feet remain inside the animal, and the rest of her body is angled toward the floor, with her left shoulder making contact. She cranes her neck slightly to gaze back toward the deer, who has large ears and small antler nubs. The bronze surface of the sculpture is smooth and has a dark uniform patina, making it appear black.
  • No title, 1970

    Eva Hesse

    [no title]
  • Wehgeweihtes Kind (Child Consecrated to Suffering), 1935

    Paul Klee

    Wehgeweihtes Kind (Child Consecrated to Suffering)
  • 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.
