Author Description

From 1958 to 2004, Robert and Jane Meyerhoff assembled one of the greatest collections ever to focus on American painting of the postwar era. Built around six major figures Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Roy Lichtenstein, Brice Marden, Robert Rauschenberg, and Frank Stella the collection comprises some three hundred works, almost half of which are included here. Works by leading abstract expressionists and younger artists such as Julian Lethbridge and Mel Bochner also feature.
