The Marie Eccles Caine Collection

The collection of the Marie Eccles Caine Foundation offers viewers the opportunity to see works by fascinating artists who are usually left out of twentieth-century surveys. The Caine Foundation seeks out key Western artworks that offer new twists on the story of twentieth-century American art. The core of the collection explores certain key art historical moments, as evidenced by healthy examples of Los Angeles Post-Surrealism, Santa Fe Transcendentalism, Bay Area Abstract Expressionism, and San Francisco Funk. Focusing on works made after 1920s, the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art has quickly become one of the most important repositories of modernist works made in the west.
