"Claude Monet: Late Work" at Gagosian in New York
- April 30, 2010 14:50
Twenty-seven masterpieces in “Claude Monet: Late Work,” which opened Saturday, include spellbinding works created in Giverny between 1892 and 1926, now on view in the heart of Chelsea's contemporary art scene.
Hedge fund manager Steven A. Cohen's 1906 water-lilies painting by the great French Impressionist is one gem in this Gagosian Gallery show. Cohen paid $20.2 million in 2002 for “Nympheas.” Gagosian won't disclose if the work is now for sale or on loan.
Other Monets in the exhibition, on view through June 26, include works from the Art Institute of Chicago and the Beyeler Foundation.
