Timeless Mucha: The Magic of Line

MAA has arranged for a private guided tour of the exhibition “Timeless Mucha: The Magic of Line” at the Phillips Collection in Washington, DC, on Saturday, March 29 at 2:15 pm.

Timeless Mucha surveys Czech painter and decorative artist Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939), exploring his revolutionary contributions to graphic design and the enduring influence of his signature style. Featuring over 100 works from the Mucha Trust Collection, the exhibition traces Mucha’s artistic evolution—from his early training to his rise as a leading figure in the Art Nouveau movement—highlighting 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 was revived in the vibrant poster art of the counterculture movement, becoming a hallmark of psychedelic rock posters, album covers, comic books, and Japanese manga.

The tour is scheduled for one hour and you are welcome to explore the galleries in small groups after the tour.

Gallery guidelines: Sketching using pencils without erasers and photography are encouraged in the galleries. Items such as backpacks/large bags, food/drinks, umbrellas, and pens are prohibited inside the galleries.
