The Ronald S. Lauder Collection on View at The Neue Gallerie New York

The Neue Galerie New York will feature a major exhibition featuring roughly 500 works from Ronald S. Lauder will be on view through March 20. 

 

The exhibition provides unique insight into what marketers call one of the finest private collections in the world. Visitors will be introduced the mindset of a lifelong connoisseur of art whose forward-thinking vision laid the groundwork for the museum.

 

Developed over the course of 65 years, the Lauder Collection is defined by a dedication to art of beauty, quality and rarity. Only on one other occasion has the public had the opportunity to explore the collection comprehensively, in a special exhibition organized in honor of the museum’s 10th anniversary, which included artworks dating from the third century BCE through the 20th Century. Masterworks of Greek and Roman sculpture, Italian 13th and 14th-Century gold-ground paintings, objects for a Kunstkammer, and Austrian and German painting, sculpture and decorative arts from the early 20th Century will be on view. 

 

What’s more, the exhibition situates these works in domestically-scaled settings similar to how they appear in Lauder’s own home throughout the museum’s two gallery floors.
