Jordan Eagles: Centrifuge
Jordan Eagles: Centrifuge features a powerful array of artwork that challenges discrimination against and the stigmatization of queer individuals.
Through the lens of blood donation guidelines, Eagles explores the aesthetics and ethics of blood as an artistic medium, advocates for equality, and inspires dialogue on the harmful effects of identity-based policies.

Museum Exhibition
Willem de Kooning: The Breakthrough Years, 1945–50
NOW OPEN
Anchored by works from de Kooning’s first solo exhibition, held in 1948, including Black Friday—a highlight in Princeton’s collections—as well as paintings from more than a dozen museums and private collections, The Breakthrough Years is the first exhibition to focus on the enormously generative and creative period that surrounded de Kooning’s full-scale debut in the New York art world. During this time, de Kooning refined the exchange in his work between figuration and abstraction through experimentation, resulting in compositions that are among his most celebrated.
The Breakthrough Years offers a rare opportunity to study a defining moment in the career of an artist who fundamentally redefined painting in the twentieth century to become one of modernism’s foundational representatives.
