The Old Master paintings and European sculpture and decorative arts
at the renowned Frick Collection might be thought to be all but
inextricable from the domestic setting of the Gilded Age mansion in
which they reside. For a couple of years, however, while the Frick
is undergoing renovation, highlights from the collection have been
relocated to a radically different, unlikely home: Marcel Breuer's
Brutalist building five blocks away, which the architect designed
for the Whitney Museum of American Art. The result is a stunning
reconstruction and re-presentation of a beloved collection, with
the museum's treasures comfortably and elegantly adapting to their
temporary modernist abode. This handsome volume documents this
altogether singular moment in the Frick's history with stunning
photographs by Joseph Coscia Jr. and a reflective foreword by
Roxane Gay.
