Love Avery for his Body

A drizzle of Matisse here, a scatter of Picasso there. Finding a well-rounded body of an artist’s work in one location can be unbearably difficult, unless you hit up the Coral Springs Museum of Art. Thanks to a generous loan from the Kaufmann family, you and your fellow fans of American modernism can soak up all the Milton Avery you can handle. Spanning roughly a quarter century, from the late 1920s to the early ’50s, these 21 oil paintings vibrate with color, allowing you to understand why many consider him to be a true master of pigment wrangling.
