Men at Work is a selection of works from the Permanent Collection that reveals the many facets of human endeavor. Men of thought, laborers, entertainers, and men of action represent the breadth of human experience and the significant role of disparate activities in man’s history. In paintings, sculpture, and photographs, artists have depicted intellectuals, sailors, farmers, miners, and soldiers, capturing aspects of their emotional life as well as their physical labor. William Merritt Chase, Thomas Eakins, George Grosz, John Rogers, Emma Stebbins, and John Sloan are among the featured artists.

Men at Work is sponsored in part by Frank Lourenso & Gary Stevens-Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, and by The John Hahn Foundation
