||1: The museum’s collection manages to be both thorough and surprising. ||2: Those who wish to see works by major American artists such as Winslow Homer, Thomas Hart Benton and Robert Rauschenberg will not be disappointed. ||3: But Don Bacigalupi, the museum director, says that in building a collection at this late date he looked at “identifying new scholarship and new research that led us toward artists and moments less well discovered”. ||4: That has inspired a particularly strong focus on women in American art—as patrons, subjects and creators. ||5: Janet Sobel, who made drip paintings several years before Jackson Pollock, gets her due. ||6: Among the museum’s first-rate collection of portraits, nothing exceeds Dennis Miller Bunker’s sombre, haunting image of Anne Page (pictured above); and in its contemporary galleries Alison Elizabeth Taylor’s marquetry “Room” is, like the museum itself, a chamber of wonders in an unexpected place.

||1:博物馆的收藏尽量做到既彻底又令人惊讶。||2:那些希望看到温斯洛·荷马、托马斯·哈特·本顿以及罗伯特·劳森伯格等主要美国艺术家作品的人不会失望。||3:但博物馆馆长唐·巴奇加卢皮表示，营造这么一个晚期的收藏，就他看来是“让我们确认早没发现的艺术家的新学术成就，以及确认早没发现的时刻的新研究”。||4:特别是激发了对美国艺术中妇女的强烈关注，比如妇女赞助人、妇女题材和妇女创作者。||5:珍妮特·索贝尔得到了应得的权益，她比杰克逊·波洛克早几年就创作出了滴画。||6:在博物馆一流的画像收藏当中，当属丹尼斯·米勒·邦克令人难忘的忧郁画像安妮·蓓姬（见上图），而在博物馆的当代画廊中，艾莉森·伊丽莎白·泰勒镶嵌细工的“展室”就象博物馆本身，在意想不到的地方展示了一室的奇观。
