While the Frick Collection’s historic mansion undergoes renovations, its masterpieces have a new home: the Frick Madison, opening on March 18. (Timed-entry tickets, available via frick.org, are required.) The Marcel Breuer-designed building, most recently a branch of the Met, turns out to be a magnificent context for the museum’s holdings—the brutalist décor even serves the frothy tastes of Madame du Barry, who commissioned Jean-Honoré Fragonard’s rococo painting “The Progress of Love: The Pursuit,” pictured above.
