In Focus: The Figure Today presents a dynamic exploration of the figure in contemporary practice. Anchored by major recent acquisitions by painters Bo Bartlett (born 1955), Jamie Wyeth (born 1946), and Ruby Sky Stiler (born 1979), the presentation also features works by Alex Katz (born 1927), Reggie Burrows Hodges (born 1965), and others. Together, these works reflect the enduring power of the figure in American art and the innovative ways artists continue to engage with the human form today.
