THE FRICK COLLECTION
The Frick at Your Fingertips
While we may be far apart, we’ve never felt closer to our community. Thank you to everyone who is sharing this time with us and responding so positively to the new and exciting content we highlight each week.
Today, watch the newly released episode of Travels with a Curator. On Thursday, join the Center for the History of Collecting for a Virtual Fellows’ Forum. Catch up on the first two episodes of our 2020 video series, What’s Her Story, which honors stories of women in the Frick’s collection and history.
Join Frick curators as they pose five questions to invited guests. Each episode, released every other Tuesday, features an entertaining and exciting exchange of viewpoints. Funny, illuminating, and thought-provoking—this is the Frick Five.
The Frick is concocting the perfect mix of cocktails and art. Every Friday at 5:00 p.m., tune in to watch a curator (remotely) offer their insights on a work of art.
This week, with French 75 in hand, Xavier F. Salomon, Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator, will discuss François Boucher’s A Lady on Her Day Bed.
Find inspiration in works of art at the Frick wherever you are.
This week, inspired by the work of Chardin, we challenge you to create your own still life using household items. Sketch or photograph your creation and share it with us on Facebook or Instagram for a chance to have your work featured on our social channels.
We’ve been delighted to learn that many of you have been enjoying “Cocktails with a Curator” and other Frick favorites with friends and family across the globe. We’d love to hear about your experience!
