The Phillips Collection

ArtClosed · Opens 10amFrom $20Dupont Circle (Red Line, Q Street exit)

Ο Duncan Phillips ίδρυσε το μουσείο αυτό το 1921 στην προσωπική του κατοικία στο Dupont Circle – πέντε χρόνια προτού η Νέα Υόρκη αποκτήσει κάτι ανάλογο – και αυτή η οικεία, σπιτική ατμόσφαιρα δεν χάθηκε ποτέ. Σχεδόν 6.000 έργα εκτίθενται σε χώρους που εξακολουθούν να μοιάζουν με ζεστό σπίτι: ο El Greco πλάι στον Cézanne, ο Bonnard δίπλα στον Rothko, διατεταγμένα όχι με αυστηρή χρονολογική σειρά, αλλά με τρόπο που γεννά έναν διάλογο ανά τους αιώνες. Αναμφισβήτητο επίκεντρο παραμένει το Luncheon of the Boating Party του Renoir, αλλά το Rothko Room και το δωμάτιο από κερί μέλισσας του Wolfgang Laib είναι οι εμπειρίες που μένουν αξέχαστες στους επισκέπτες. Η πτέρυγα του 1960 και το κατά κύριο λόγο υπόγειο Sant Building του 2006 πρόσθεσαν χώρο χωρίς να αλλοιώσουν τον ιδιαίτερο χαρακτήρα του ιστορικού αρχοντικού.
