Painting and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art
The cumulative result of decades of collection-building is chronicled in the richly illustrated pages, including the legendary favorites of the collection, such as Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night (1889), Pablo Picasso's Girl Before a Mirror (1932) and Andy Warhol's Gold Marilyn Monroe (1962). The selection also celebrates lesser-known masterworks that underscore the vast breadth of the collection, such as Diego Rivera's Agrarian Leader Zapata (1931), Horace Pippin's Abe Lincoln, The Great Emancipator (1942) and Niki de Saint Phalle's Shooting Painting American Embassy (1961). The story continues through to the present, including landmark works such as Gerhard Richter's October 18, 1977 (1988), Kara Walker's Gone: A Historical Romance of a Civil War as It Occurred b'tween the Dusky Thighs of One Young Negress and Her Heart (1994) and Cai Guo-Qiang's Borrowing Your Enemy's Arrows (1998).
