    In a brief life that endured considerable tragedy, Armenian-born artist Arshile Gorky (1904-1948) built upon the achievements of early modern artists to become a major influence in American art of the post-World-War-II period. The first comprehensive retrospective devoted to Gorky in nearly three decades, this exhibition includes 180 paintings, drawings, sculpture and prints drawn from public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe. A variety of special events are happening in conjunction with this exhibition, including lectures, films and a "Discover Armenian Art" for children and families.
