CURRENT EXHIBITION

Corps Exquis

January 19, 2008—August 31, 2008

Organized by CFAM director Luanne McKinnon, this ambitious exhibition (pronounced kor ekskee) celebrates the genre of the human figure with examples ranging from the Baroque to the Post-modern era.  Drawings, etchings, lithographs, mixed and new media works of art describe the "exquisite body" - a central theme in art for centuries - as interpreted by Pablo Picasso, KiKi Smith, Paul Cézanne, Ida Applebroog, Vanessa Beecroft, Rembrandt van Rijn, and Duncan Grant, among many others.  The exhibition is comprised of many works from the museum's permanent collection including recent acquisitions and important loans from private collectors, galleries, and artists.
