Modern Art

Ongoing

Roger Fry, 'The Blue Bowl,' 1919, oil on composition board

In the wake of far-reaching social, political, and cultural change in the first half of the 20th century, modern art in Europe and America upended tradition through the proliferation of new styles, movements, and techniques. Fully redesigned and expanded, our new gallery for modern art showcases more than 50 rarely seen artworks and returning visitor favorites. These works demonstrate the interconnected nature of art in this transformative period, crossing nationalities and blurring cultural lines to conceive of a new type of art that is unique to its time.
