The Los Angeles County Museum of Art will be opening a new exhibition in February dedicated to the The Henry and Rose Pearlman Foundation which have been gifted to the Brooklyn Museum, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York respectively. The gift includes works by Cézanne, Van Gogh, Modigliani, Degas, Soutine, Manet, Gauguin, Toulouse Lautrec, Sisley and more.
According to their website:
Comprising an exceptional group of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and modern artworks, the Pearlman Collection will be gifted across the three institutions in a novel sharing arrangement that will enhance access to larger and more diverse audiences through continually changing contexts.
In recognition of the late Pearlmans' generous spirit, the collection will travel as an exhibition before being placed under the care of the respective institutions. From February to July 2026, the exhibition Village Square: Gifts of Modern Art from the Pearlman Collection to the Brooklyn Museum, LACMA, and MoMA will be on view at LACMA, and in the fall of 2026 the collection will travel to the Brooklyn Museum. In the near future, MoMA will also present an exhibition of the Pearlman gifts.
