Futurism: A Modern Focus
a the Guggenheim Museum

The first New York showing of The Lydia and Harry Lewis Winston Collection is at the Guggenheim Museum and will run through February 3, 1974. Titled Futurism: A Modern Focus, the exhibition includes 254 items in all media from a collection of over 600 works lent by Dr. and Mrs. Barnett Malbin of Birmingham, Michigan.

The key concept in the Winston Collection is Futurism, and it is the quantity and quality of Futurist works that confer a particular status upon the collection and that insure its distinctiveness and character. The collection contains dozens of examples by the three principal Italian Futurists - Balla, Boccioni, and Severini. Of the painting "Sea = Dancer" Severini wrote: "The sea with its dance on the spot, its zig-zag movements and scintillating contrasts of silver and emerald, in my plastic sensibility evokes the far off vision of a dancer covered with sparkling paillettes in her surroundings of light, noises, and sounds."

The Dada period is also strongly represented through paintings by Picabia, collages by Schwitters, and works by Arp. Additional works from other periods are included by such well-known European modernists as Appel, Archipenko, Brancusi, Braque, Delaunay, van Doesburg, Ernst, Giacometti, Gleizes, Gris, Kandinsky, Klee, Leger, Lissitzky, Miro, Mondrian, Picasso, Rosso, and others. The Post-War period is mirrored in works by the American artists Calder, Albers, Feeley, Louis, Noland, Stella, and Warhol.
