This show functions as both a retrospective and reading room, where viewers are permitted to do what artists and collectors get to do all the time: relax on a couch, thumb through a book or magazine, and move toward specific works when an image calls out to them, rather than fulfill the traditional role of taking all of the art in a series of dutiful standing bursts before hustling themselves back out into their busy lives.
