Modernism and Memory: Rhoda Pritzker and the Art of Collecting

May 11 -  August 21, 2016 - This exhibition aims to offer a richer understanding of Pritzker’s collecting style while highlighting developments in the work of notable modern British artists.  These paintings depict the eerie emptiness of seaside and rural scenes and the isolated figure in which this artist, famous for crowd scenes, became interested later in his career. The exhibition juxtaposes these haunting works with Lowry’s major oil painting from 1952, The Market Place, which itself exemplifies one of Pritzker’s favorite themes, scenes of everyday life represented with a sprinkling of humor.
