The Yale University Art Gallery recently received a gift from the Friday Foundation of six paintings and drawings by Mark Rothko and Franz Kline artists who profoundly influenced 20th-century American art and the work of future generations.
The gift honors the legacy of the late Jane Lang Davis and Richard E. Lang, Seattle-based philanthropists who built one of the country’s most important private collections of 20th-century art. An installation exhibiting the six works four by Kline and two by Rothko will be on view once the Gallery reopens. A larger exhibition, planned for February 2022, will present the works with paintings, drawings, and sculpture from the gallery’s extensive collection of mid-20th-century art.
