Alex Katz at the Met

June 28 - November 6, 2016 - This exhibition, mounted in celebration of gifts both donated and promised to the Met, gathers works by Alex Katz, one of our era's most acclaimed artists. Among the works are two cutouts, the innovative artistic device that Katz pioneered in the late 1950s; a haunting cityscape; several portraits of Ada, Katz's wife and long-time muse; and portraits of luminaries from Katz's own social and artistic circles.
