Leonard A. Lauder CUBISM Exhibit to Close at Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2/16

This major exhibition of the essential Cubists-Georges Braque, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, and Pablo Picasso-traces the invention and development of Cubism using iconic examples from the Leonard A. Lauder Collection, with its unparalleled holdings in this foundational modernist movement. The exhibition marks the first time that the Collection, which Mr. Lauder pledged to the Museum in April 2013, is shown in its entirety. It features 81 paintings, works on paper, and sculpture: 17 by Braque, 15 by Gris, 15 by Léger, and 34 by Picasso.
