This exhibition brings together 34 powerful American and European works, all created since the 1950s, that explore the biological, psychological or spiritual volatility of the human figure. The works--by such powerhouse artists as Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Willem de Kooning, Alice Neel, Philip Guston, Eric Fischl, Jenny Saville and Julian Schnabel--employ a wide range of painterly effects to suggest the carnal properties of human flesh, as well as its metaphorical significance.
