Facing the Figure: Selected Works From the Collection 1962-2007 September 6, 2010

The works in this installation present a range of approaches that eight prominent American artists have taken to depicting the human form. The selection begins in the 1960s, when the powerful tide of Abstract Expressionism had receded and the brash new phenomenon of Pop art was rapidly gaining momentum. These artists stood apart from prevailing trends, developing their own individual styles.
