Porcelain Garden: Vladimir Kanevsky at The Frick Collection

In conjunction with its reopening, following its 2020–25 renovation, The Frick Collection has commissioned a series of porcelain flowers from Ukrainian sculptor Vladimir Kanevsky. Some twenty arrangements evoke the fresh flowers displayed throughout the museum when it first opened to the public, in 1935.

Kanevsky’s lifelike porcelain flowers have been exhibited in museums around the world, including the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory Museum in Meissen, the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and Hillwood Estate, Museum & Gardens in Washington, DC.
