A retrospective exhibit of the work of Czech artist Alphonse Mucha is now showing at the Phillips Collection and will be viewed in a free  private tour arranged for the North Bethesda Village. The exhibit surveys Mucha’s revolutionary contributions to graphic design and explores the enduring influence of his signature style as rediscovered by later generations of artists. 

The exhibit features over 100 works, tracing Mucha’s artistic evolution from his early training to his emergence as a leading figure of the Art Nouveau movement.  It showcases his intricate linework, flowing forms, and highly stylized designs that transformed poster art, commercial illustration, and visual aesthetics worldwide.  In the 1960s, Mucha’s distinctive style found new life in the vibrant poster art of the counterculture movement, becoming a trademark of psychedelic rock posters and album covers as well as influencing Japanese manga and murals.

Location: The Phillips Collection, 1600 21st St, NW, Washington DC 20009
