The Collection

A dark, stylized sculpture of a human figure with curly hair, minimal facial features, and broad limbs. The figure stands upright against a neutral background.
Two-panel abstract artwork depicting figures dancing and playing instruments amidst nature-inspired motifs. A hand reaches from above to a boat on water, with varied shapes and patterns in vibrant blue and white hues enhancing the scene.
Sculpture of funerary mask of a woman made out of plaster, paint, and cartonnage dated 30 BCE to 600 CE

An abstract painting featuring a person in a black suit sitting on a red chair on a red, grey and yellow background.

Abstract cubist artwork depicting a face with geometric shapes, wavy lines, and earth tones. Features include fragmented forms and hues of blue, brown, and green, suggesting depth and movement.
A line of eleven silhouetted figures in tribal attire dance with raised arms, holding sticks or spears, on a beige background. The black, sketchy lines give an impression of movement and rhythm.
A framed painting depicts a serene landscape with large trees and greenery in the foreground. A cityscape is visible in the distance under a blue sky with clouds. A person stands on a path gazing at the view.
A surreal painting shows two women in period attire, fragmented into rectangles within an oval frame. Beneath, three scissors stand upright on a marble table, with another scissor lying flat. The background features vertical grey stripes.
