## 🌟 WHY THIS EVENT IS SPECIAL

Join us for an inspiring afternoon at one of New York City’s most iconic cultural institutions — the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum — where we will experience two extraordinary exhibitions that bridge contemporary innovation with modern art history.

## 🎨 CAROL BOVE

Carol Bove is one of the most inventive and compelling artists working today. Known for her striking sculptural installations and bold use of materials, Bove creates works that explore space, movement, tension, and transformation.
In this major exhibition, her work interacts beautifully with the Guggenheim’s legendary rotunda, creating a powerful dialogue between architecture and sculpture. Her pieces feel dynamic and alive — often appearing to twist, bend, and defy gravity — inviting us to slow down, observe closely, and reconsider how we experience art.
This is one of the season’s most talked-about exhibitions and a rare opportunity to see Bove’s work on a grand scale.

## 🖼️ COLLECTION IN FOCUS | Natalia Goncharova, Vasily Kadinsky, Franz Marc

At the beginning of the twentieth century, artists across Europe reimagined the possibilities of painting to reflect their rapidly changing world. Influenced by sweeping social and economic changes and energized by the avant-garde, they broke from tradition to experiment with vivid color, flattened forms, and heightened emotional expression.
Modern European Currents, featuring works from the Guggenheim’s collection by Natalia Goncharova, Vasily Kadinsky, Franz Marc, and more, captures this pivotal moment of artistic innovation and exchange. Artists turned to spirituality, nature, and abstraction as ways to interpret modern life, while also drawing from folk art and global influences in search of deeper connections. This exhibition invites you to explore a transformative turning point—when artists redefined the role of art in society and paved the way for the rise of abstraction.
This exhibition is organized by Megan Fontanella, Curator of Modern Art and Provenance, and Vivien Green, Senior Curator of 19th- and Early 20th-Century Art, Guggenheim New York.

## 🖼️ THIS IS A SELF-GUIDED GROUP VISIT

Please note that this is a self-guided tour.

What that means:

We will meet at the museum entrance and begin together at 1:00 PM, but we will explore the exhibitions at our own pace. There is no private docent reserved for this visit.

Members are free to move through the galleries independently, linger with works that interest them most, and reconnect throughout the afternoon. We will remain loosely coordinated as a group, but you may experience the art in the way that feels most meaningful to you.

This format allows flexibility, reflection, conversation, and the freedom to fully immerse yourself in the exhibitions.
