Body Talk: Selections from the Rose Collection, 1917-2016

Tracing connections from early to recently acquired objects, Body Talk: Selections from the Rose Collection, 1917-2016 is the first in a series to explore the origins and thematic through lines in the Rose Art Museum’s collection. Beginning with the Surrealist-inspired paintings and collages of Joseph Cornell, André Masson, and Max Weber, the gathered works of this iteration focus on the body to evoke the contradictions aroused by and rooted in this typically familiar subject.
