Paris and New York: A transatlantic story of 20th Century art. 🇫🇷🇺🇸
In the 20th century, Paris and New York emerged as epicentres of artistic evolution: one cultivating radical experimentation, the other transforming those ideas into bold new movements that redefined painting itself.
The Collection of Robert F. and Patricia G. Ross Weis traces this vibrant dialogue between cities across decades and generations. In 1930s Paris, Picasso, Matisse, Miro and Mondrian shattered conventions of form, line and colour. In post-war New York, Rothko and Kline continued to push these boundaries to forge a distinctly American visual language — raw and daringly new.
Over 50 years, the couple united these voices, building a collection that bridges the great revolutions in modern history and charts the painterly ethos that stretched from Paris to New York, and back again.
