Between 1914 and 1919, Henry Clay Frick acquired twenty works by James McNeill Whistler: five paintings, three pastels, and twelve prints, a remarkable ensemble that represents the breadth of Whistler’s artistic activity and testifies to Frick’s taste as a collector.
Siena: The Art of Bronze, 1450–1500 October 15, 2026 to January 18, 2027 Siena: The Art of Bronze, 1450–1500 is the first exhibition to focus on Siena as a center of artistic excellence and technical innovation in bronze sculpture during the Italian Renaissance. Bringing together some forty works—most of which have never been exhibited outside of Tuscany—the exhibition invites visitors to appreciate the medium’s beauty and versatility while learning about the complex technical and political challenges that the Sienese bronzeworkers faced.
Kent Monkman: Officer and Laughing Girl November 12, 2026 to February 22, 2027 The Frick Collection will present an installation of new paintings by the contemporary artist Kent Monkman (b. Canada, 1965), whose practice explores historic European art and narratives from an Indigenous perspective. For this project, Monkman takes inspiration from Officer and Laughing Girl (ca. 1657)—one of the Frick’s three paintings by the seventeenth-century Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer—to probe the ways in which it and other artworks of its time represented the effects of global trade and colonization.
Painting with Fire: Susanne de Court and the Art of Enamel April 8 to July 12, 2027 The Frick Collection will present the first exhibition dedicated to the French enameler Susanne de Court. Active around 1600, De Court is an enigmatic figure in the creation of painted enamels. With nearly one hundred surviving works, she is widely believed to have been the only woman to lead a workshop in Limoges, France. This exhibition will bring together around fifty of De Court’s signed works, inviting visitors to discover her practice and some of the finest examples of her extraordinary output.
