Pissarro to Picasso: Masterworks from the Kirkland Family Collection

Oct 6, 2024 - Jan 26, 2025

Presented by: Dixon Gallery and Gardens

Thanks to the generosity of the Kirkland family of Los Angeles, visitors to the Dixon will be able to enjoy eighteen art treasures from the family’s collection, many of which have not been publicly displayed in decades. The works span more than a century, from Claude Monet’s view of the banks of the river Seine from 1881 to paintings by late twentieth century icons Jean-Michel Basquiat and Fernando Botero. With sterling examples by Camille Pissarro, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, and Ellsworth Kelly, among others, the Kirkland Collection illustrates the revolutionary changes in art in Europe and the United States along the way, including Impressionism, fauvism, surrealism, cubism, and abstraction.
