Though little known beyond his native Sweden, sculptor and draftsman Johan Tobias Sergel (1740–1814) was one of the most compelling artistic figures of the late eighteenth century. This exhibition—the first dedicated to Sergel outside Europe—will feature a selection of his drawings alongside sculptural works in terracotta, marble, and plaster.

In the early 1970s, as galleries and dealers of photography multiplied in New York City and other major cities, the medium began to gain a firm foothold in the art world. Richard L.
