Ben Shahn, On Nonconformity is the artist’s first retrospective in the United States in almost fifty years. Impeccably curated and designed, the exhibition aims to bring renewed critical attention to one of America’s most consequential modernists. 

The museum recalls the artist’s deep commitment to Peruvian art as a founding member of the Instituto de Arte Contemporáneo, which celebrates its 70th anniversary this year.

The first large-scale exhibition of Latin American art in the West Asia and North Africa region has opened: LATINOAMERICANO. Modern and Contemporary Art from Malba and Eduardo Costantini Collections.
