Delirious: Art at the Limits of Reason, 1950-1980 is just what the doctor ordered for September at Met Breuer, and is as pertinent in today’s climate of turmoil as it was in the years covered by this exhibit.  Delirious will include about 100 works of art by 62 diverse artists, that will take the viewer in four directions  ~  Vertigo, Excess, Nonsense, and Twisted, exploring the depths of imagination of both the artist and viewer.

September 13 to January 14, 2018

Related events will include Exhibition Tours.
