Cecily Brown: Death and the Maid opens today at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. 

The first full-breadth museum survey in New York of the internationally acclaimed artist, Cecily Brown, the exhibition highlights the significant contributions of this important New York-based painter from across her 25-year career and in the city she has called home for three decades. The tightly themed show unites some 50 paintings, drawings, sketchbooks, and monotypes — many never before seen in New York and several recently completed — to focus on Brown’s enduring and intertwining themes of still life, memento mori, mirroring, and vanitas.
