颁茅锄补苍苍别 and the Modern: Masterpieces of European Art from the Pearlman Collection
In the mid-twentieth century, businessman Henry Pearlman, the founder of Eastern Cold Storage Company, assembled an extraordinary collection of European modern art. He was particularly drawn to the work of Paul 颁茅锄补苍苍别, one of the most pivotal figures in the development of modernism. Pearlman acquired some twenty-four of 颁茅锄补苍苍别's paintings, including one of the most significant private holdings of the artist's watercolors. This exhibition is the first public tour of the Pearlman collection since the 1970s.
The vibrant colors, strong compositions, and bold brushwork of the School of Paris, including Cha茂m Soutine and Amedeo Modigliani, reverberate throughout the collection. They accompany works by influential older artists: 茅douard Manet, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Camille Pissarro. Henry Pearlman found living with these works of art in both his home and office a transformative experience, which he aimed to share with others by lending his collection. The present international tour of the Pearlman Collection has been organized in this spirit of generosity.
To complement the Pearlman holdings, five portraits by Soutine from a private collection are also on view.
