Acquavella Galleries is pleased to present Masterworks: From Bonnard to Barceló, a for-sale exhibition of late 19th, 20th, and early 21st-century paintings, works on paper, and sculpture.

Masterworks: From Bonnard to Barceló features an overview of Impressionist, modern and contemporary masters, tracing the path of modernism from its inception in nineteenth-century France through postwar and contemporary art. The exhibition culminates in a selection of paintings completed as recently as the last decade.

“Being naked has to do with making a more complete portrait… when someone is naked there is in effect nothing to be hidden. Not everyone wants to be that honest about themselves, that means I feel an obligation to be equally honest in how I represent them.”

—Lucian Freud

“Painting is the pattern of one’s own nervous system being projected on the canvas.”

—Francis Bacon
