Upcoming Exhibitions
Alias Man Ray: The Art of Reinvention
November 15, 2009 - March 14, 2010
Alias Man Ray presents a fresh look at the diversity of Man Ray's body of work, examining it in the context of his lifelong cover-up of his Russian-Jewish immigrant past and his suppression of his background. The project marks the first time that his willful construction of an artistic persona is explored and demonstrates how this personal agenda informs his work and methods.
Curious George Saves the Day: The Art of Margret and H.A. Rey
March 14, 2010 - August 01, 2010
America’s favorite monkey, the irrepressible Curious George, is always in trouble! In a great turn of fate, he helped his creators get out of life-threatening danger. Nearly 60 original drawings for Margret and H. A. Rey's children’s books and documentation related to their escape from Nazi-occupied Europe are on view.
Modern Art, Sacred Space: Motherwell, Ferber and Gottlieb
March 14, 2010 - August 01, 2010
In 1951, renowned architect Percival Goodman commissioned Abstract Expressionist artists Robert Motherwell, Adolph Gottlieb, and Herbert Ferber to create contemporary works of art for the modern synagogue in Millburn, New Jersey, that he designed. The exhibition features the three site-specific works by these artists, as well as studies, maquettes, and in-progress photographs.
South Africa Witnessed: Photographs by David Goldblatt
May 04, 2010 - September 26, 2010
David Goldblatt, one of South Africa’s most highly regarded photographers, was witness to apartheid’s infiltration into every aspect of South African life. His photos do not look at the large events or the public face of violence; rather they focus on the world of ordinary people and the minutiae of everyday life, illuminating the depth of injustice and the character of the people who impose it and who struggle against it.
