Double Take: From Monet to Lichtenstein is an intriguing exhibition culled from the private collection of Seattle businessman and philanthropist Paul G. Allen. There are 28 works on loan for the show, many of which have not been seen publicly for upwards of 50 years. The truly intriguing aspect of Double Take... is in its hanging, though. Exhibition curator Paul Hayes Tucker has creatively paired Impressionist and Post-Impressionist pieces with modern and contemporary works, placing the former side-by-side with the latter in groups of two or three. For art lovers - and anyone who has ever enjoyed the essay question that begins "Compare and contrast ..." - this show represents a rare treat.
