Amazing 90+ minute tour of philanthropist Frederick Weisman’s personal collection of 20th century art. More than 400 hundred works of art are on display in the Mediterranean-style villa, which was designed by Gordon B. Kaufmann in the late 1920s. The collection includes works by European Modernists including Cezanne, Picasso and Kandinsky and Surrealist works by Ernst, Miro and Magritte. The holdings in postwar art include works by Giacometti, Noguchi, Calder, Rauschenberg and Johns; Abstract Expressionist paintings by de Kooning, Francis, Still and Rothko; Color-Field paintings by Frankenthaler, Louis and Noland; and Pop Art by Warhol, Lichtenstein, Oldenburg and Rosenquist. Contemporary California works include those by Ruscha and Goode, and Super Realist sculptures by Hanson and de Andrea. Enjoy special treats from Susie Cakes (Susan Sarich ’91).
