Monet and His Modern Legacy

Oct. 28-March 10

The master Impressionist’s far-reaching influence is explored in this exhibition, which features Monet’s paintings as well as those of the Abstract Expressionists they inspired. See Monet’s once-dismissed late works and trace their evolutions through to the radical works of artists like Sam Francis, Helen Frankenthaler, Jules Olitski, and Jean-Paul Riopelle. The exhibition also features three remarkable loans from Paris’ Musée Marmottan Monet as well as the return of the beloved Water Lilies.

Evelyn Hofer: Eyes on the City

Sept.16-Feb. 11

Evelyn Hofer’s first major U.S. exhibition in more than 50 years, Eyes on the City features over 100 stunning portraits of cities and the people who inhabit them. Unlike other street photographers, Hofer captured life and society in careful compositions and deliberate moments. Experience the work of an underrecognized visionary–one who sought to convey the essence of her subjects, be they everyday citizens or urban capitals in the midst of transformation.
