The Phillips Collection

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

Duncan Phillips otworzył to muzeum we własnym domu przy Dupont Circle w 1921 roku – pięć lat przed tym, jak w Nowym Jorku powstało cokolwiek porównywalnego – i ta kameralna atmosfera przetrwała do dziś. Prawie 6000 dzieł wypełnia wnętrza, które wciąż przypominają prywatną rezydencję: El Greco sąsiaduje tu z Cézanne'em, a Bonnard z Rothką. Układ prac pomyślano tak, by prowokować dialog ponad stuleciami, zamiast narzucać sztywną chronologię. Prawdziwą perłą kolekcji jest „Śniadanie wioślarzy” Renoira, lecz to Rothko Room oraz wykonana z wosku pszczelego instalacja Wolfganga Laiba zapadają zwiedzającym w pamięć najsilniej. Skrzydło z 1960 roku i w znacznej mierze podziemny Sant Building z 2006 roku powiększyły przestrzeń muzeum, nie odbierając mu przy tym uroku eleganckiego miejskiego domu.
