Nikonsu Art Collection
Sixty works of high-chroma abstraction from the bequest that founded our permanent holdings.
The Collection
Color at full volume
Industrialist-turned-collector Elena Nikonsu spent thirty years buying the loudest paintings she could find, then gave them all to us. The result is a permanent survey of color-first abstraction spanning 1960 to today.
The collection rotates twice a year, so repeat visits pay off. Docent-led collection tours run every Sunday at noon and are free with admission.
