Exhibition tour: In Focus: Play. During the 19th century, the new medium of photography was used to capture events of everyday life, including the many ways that people spent their leisure time. This exhibition traces the development of the photographic subject of leisure through the works of artists such as Roger Fenton, Eugène Atget, Gertrude Käsebier, Brassaï, Larry Sultan, and Bill Owens.

J. M. W. Turner: Painting Set Free. J. M. W. Turner produced his most important and famous paintings after the age of 60. Demonstrating ongoing radicalism of technique and ever-original subject matter, these works illustrate how Turner constantly challenged his contemporaries. Bringing together over 60 key oil paintings and watercolors, this major international loan exhibition is the first to focus on the unfettered creativity of Turner’s final years.

Renaissance Splendors of the Northern Italian Courts. The Renaissance courts of northern Italy, among the wealthiest and most sophisticated in Europe, attracted artists to create lavishly decorated panels and books. This exhibition celebrates the magnificent illuminations that emerged from this courtly context -- an array of visual riches fit for the highest-ranking members of Renaissance society.
