| Details: | This exhibition celebrates the remarkable collection of drawings assembled by the collecting couple Richard Gray, one of America’s foremost art dealers, and art historian Mary L. Gray. Amassed over the course of nearly 50 years and encompassing works produced in Europe and the United States between the fifteenth and the twenty-first centuries, the collection provides a stimulating stroll through a long and distinguished history of art making via one medium: drawing. Many of the works included in the exhibition focus on the human figure, underscoring the role of art as a window onto our shared humanity. While established names appear throughout the display—Boucher, Degas, Hockney, Matisse, Picasso, Rubens, Seurat, and Van Gogh, among others—the Grays were more interested in skill than in celebrity, and many of their exceptional drawings bear the names of lesser-known draftsmen.
