As I promised in a previous posting, here is a glimpse behind the “door” in the new Bloch Building. The Modern & Contemporary galleries were in the process of being installed when I peaked inside.
Along with favorites by Willem DeKooning, Sol LeWitt and Mark Rothko, many pieces have been brought out of storage such as Wayne Thiebaud’s Jawbreaker Machine and Richard Estes’ Bus Window.
The shrouded piece is Duane Hanson’s Museum Guard, whom we affectionately call “Roy.” It looks like Roy is ready for Halloween!
