Katz is exhibited in over 100 public collections. These include The Art Institute of Chicago; Albright-Knox Museum, Buffalo; Colby College Museum of Art, Waterville; The Brooklyn Museum; Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; Des Moines Art Center and Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden at the Smithsonian.
Alex Katz's paintings are not just simple and clean. They can be thought of as billboards advertising that excellent beer you had on Friday night or the movie trailer in theaters this weekend.
