Coinciding with the reopening of its newly renovated and enhanced home on Fifth Avenue, The Frick Collection will present a series of commissioned works by sculptor Vladimir Kanevsky (born 1951, Ukraine).  Known for his life-like porcelain flowers, Kanevsky's sculptures have been exhibited in museums around the world, including the State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, and Hillwood Estate, Museum and Gardens in Washington, D.C. Kanevsky's opulent creations are meant to evoke the beautiful live bouquets displayed throughout the museum when it first opened to the public in 1935.

A display of works on paper from the Frick's permanent collection will inaugurate the new Cabinet gallery. These sheets are rarely on view due to their sensitivity to light. The selection of twelve works range from sketches to highly finished independent works of art by artists such as Pisanello, Rubens, Goya, and Degas, spanning the fifteenth through nineteenth centuries and complementing the museum's holdings of paintings, sculpture, and decorative arts.
