Visit the Museum >>Also On View Now Through May 27, 2013 Taking cues from the Dada movement and
from the work of Swiss sculptor Alberto
Giacometti, Cy Twombly (American, 1928–
2011) created poetic objects whose serene
white surfaces and allusive forms seem to
recall remote worlds of myth and the ancient
past. After reaching an indisputable maturity
in his early sculpture, created from 1946 to
1959, Twombly returned to working in three
dimensions in the mid-1970s and continued
to cast new works up until his passing in 2011.In the Galleries Gallery 290a, second floor In the 18th-century, virtually every European aristocratic family owned an Asian porcelain tea service decorated with its coat of arms. Due to the great number of British families who possessed these heraldic objects, Chinese and Japanese factories manufactured more porcelain for export to England than to any other European country. See an example here, and visit gallery 290a for several more. Most "Loved" Object
