Painting Collection April 19, 2007

Painting, along with sculpture, forms the core of the Museum's collection, providing primary examples of the movements and individuals comprising the history of modern art. Experimental or traditional, representational or abstract, unique or in series, the paintings embody the leaps and small steps that each artist traveled as a creative individual and as a conduit for time and place. From Cleve Gray's monumental 'Threnody' to the Richard Pettibone collection of miniatures, the Neuberger Museum hosts a great collection of singular treasures.
