Pissarro to Picasso: Masterworks on Loan from the Kirkland Family Collection
Pulled from the collections of Los Angeles' Kirkland family, the Portland Art Museum showcases 14 paintings, many of which haven’t been available for public viewing in decades. Spanning the last century of visual art, Pissarro to Picasso: Masterworks on Loan from the Kirkland Family Collection includes Martin Johnson Heade's "monumental 1887 canvas of Jamaica," rare landscapes by Henri Matisse and Georgia O’Keeffe, a late-career piece by Marc Chagall, and two Cubist still lifes by Picasso, among other big-name works. Make time to visit the museum if you're hoping to see names you recognize: Monet to Matisse: French Moderns is also on view.
