Staff and Visitor Picks
Kristen's Pick - John Baldessari
For this work, the artist destroyed a series of paintings by cremating them.
Kristen's Pick - Richard Artschwager
I like this work because it is at once a highly literal demonstration of the basic elements of painting and a challenge to the idea that painting is a "special" category.
Kristen's Pick - Anne Truitt
The piece engages my intellect, my emotions, and my sense of beauty.
Kristen's Pick - Ed Ruscha
Aside from being, and perhaps because of being a masterfully painted work, Rusha's painting acts as a provocative caution against "empty" culture.
Larry's Pick - Antoine Pevsner
I find its exploration of movement and space, especially within the context of the Hirshhorn’s own unique, ring-shaped galleries, exciting.
