Featuring approximately 80 seldom-seen paintings, sculptures, prints, photographs, drawings, and films, this exhibition juxtaposes the work from artists of the Americas, providing a fresh and innovative look at this dynamic and cosmopolitan period of modernism.

American Vanguards highlights the works and efforts of the charismatic John Graham and his circle of New York artists, who, along with forging their own identities in the art world, played a critical role in defining and shaping American modernism.

Organized in celebration of a recent acquisition, American Still Life highlights the ability of 19th and 20th-century American artists to celebrate the ordinary through their paintings, whether trompe l’oeil masters or modernist photographers.
