We have a series of small, focused exhibitions called "In Dialogue" that address works from our collection on a single wall. The latest is "Power Couple: Pierre and Louise Daura in Paris," which shows the married artist couple's portraits of their neighbors the Torres-García family. Louise made paintings of Olimpia and Ifigenia Torres, while Pierre made etchings of them.
