Clifford Chance’s New York Art collection was established in 2004 in conjunction with the firm’s relocation to 31 West 52nd Street. Conceived as a reflection of the firm’s international presence and its home in New York City, the collection showcases a wide range of perspectives and practices in contemporary art. With Clifford Chance’s move to Two Manhattan West in 2025, new acquisitions were made in response to the office’s architecture and its dramatic views. The collection currently represents over eighty-five artworks in varied media including sculpture, painting, works on paper, and photographs by sixty-two international artists. Installed across the firm’s four floors, the works inspire engagement and dialogue.

Lisa Beck (b. 1958, New York) is a multidisciplinary artist who explores the tension between referential and abstract imagery in painting, sculpture, and installation. Her work is driven by her preoccupations and obsessions with the relationship of the particular to the universal. For Beck, “the particular” is a shorthand for the observable aspects of reality (the landscape, our bodies), while “the universal” refers to things that are too vast or too tiny for us to grasp completely (space, atomic physics), thus becoming a kind of abstraction. Her most prevalent motif has been the circle in all its forms and references: atoms, solids, voids, cells, selves, stars, and eternity.
Beeck’s work has been exhibited widely including at the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, Oregon; Musée d’Art Moderne et Contemporain, Geneva; White Columns, New York; and MoMA PS1, Queens, New York. Her work is held in the collection of Musée des Beaux-Arts de La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland; Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, New York; Collezione Maramotti Collection, Reggio Emilia, Italy; and FRAC des Pays de la Loire, France.

Watercolor and pencil on paper

Stephanie Crawford (b. 1942, Detroit, Michigan) is a visual and performing artist who lives and works in Oakland, California. A renowned jazz vocalist, she performed for decades in Detroit, New York, and Paris before moving to California. The artist’s lush watercolor works on paper are informed by her Buddhist practice and her interest in jazz and improvisation, and she paints from observation, moving freely between representation and abstraction. Crawford’s deliberate marks pool and bleed color across the surface of the page: "You can't control it,” she notes. “You can try, but watercolor does what it wants. In most mediums, paint stays where you put it. Watercolor complies with gravity and parallels the improvisation of jazz.”
Crawford’s work has been exhibited widely including at Rebecca Camacho Presents, San Francisco; Karma, New York; apexart, New York; Parker Gallery, Los Angeles; Gordon Robichaux, New York; and Artist Curated Projects, Los Angeles. In 2020, a profile on the artist’s work was published in Hauser & Wirth’s magazine, Ursula, and her paintings have been featured in The New York Times.

Matt Connors
Untitled, 2016
Set of four unique screenprints in colors
Edition 22/30 + 5 AP, each unique
27 x 20 inches each
Matt Connors (b. 1973, Chicago, Illinois) approaches painting as both a formal and conceptual pursuit, examining the intricate mechanisms of image-making and perception. Experimenting with process, structure, and surface, Connors makes paintings rooted in direct observation, while simultaneously drawing from a broad network of references, including photography, found images, music, poetry, art, architecture, and design. Typically beginning with a particular line of inquiry or detail, Connors’s process involves translating his subjects into images through visual strategies such as accumulation, scale shifts, replication, reversals, distortion, and mirroring. His works consequently develop their own internal logic, guided by structure, pattern, rhythm, and color, while remaining open to improvisation. This distinctive approach initiates a non-linear, open-ended dialogue between form, style, material, and meaning, inviting multiple interpretations.
Connors has exhibited his work widely, including at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Goldsmiths Centre for Contemporary Art, London; MoMA PS1, Queens, New York; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Milwaukee Art Museum, Wisconsin; and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis. His work is held in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art and The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and has been featured in The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Vogue, among others.

Richard Deacon (b. 1949, Bangor, Wales) is a sculptor whose work has taken the form of controlled, abstract structures that are combined with an imaginative and unexpected use of materials. At the forefront of international sculpture since the 1980s, he has developed a distinctive vocabulary that includes everyday materials such as laminated wood, linoleum, leather, concrete, and limestone. There is a striking tension between the resolute abstraction of his works and the organic implications of their shapes, which often evoke forms from molecular biology.
Deacon’s work has been exhibited widely including at the Middelheimmuseum, Antwerp, Belgium; the Museum Folkwang, Essen, Germany; the Kunst Museum Winterthur, Switzerland; Tate Britain, London; the Sprengel Museum Hannover, Germany; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Sofia Imber Museum of Contemporary Art, Caracas, Venezuela; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; and the George Eastman Museum, Rochester, New York.

Tabboo! (b. 1959, Worcester, MA) is a visual and performing artist who charges his landscape, still life, and portrait paintings with a disarming intimacy and immediacy. Since the early 1990s, he’s painted hundreds of views of New York City’s skyline and iconic architecture. Rendered in impressionistic gestures and with a vivid palette, gray skies and iconic skyscrapers attest to the city's stoic beauty and dramatic color fields render the city in moments of transition, from day to night and back again. Gleaming windows are sprinkled with glitter, scattering the sun’s brilliance as it sets. An indelible energy and deep affection for the city permeates the paintings, many of which depict the view from the artist’s apartment windows.
Tabboo! has exhibited his work at The Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the Brooklyn Museum, New York; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing; and Centro Galego de Arte Contemporáneo, Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

Matthias Weischer
Untitled, (Zeichnung), 2005
Graphite on paper
15 1/2 x 10 4/5 inches
Matthias Weischer (b.1973, Elte, Germany) is a painter whose work depicts domestic interior scenes and landscapes that challenge the viewer’s perception of space. He repeatedly crafts and restages his compositions to construct enigmatic interiors that suggest a fleeting human presence. Each work captures a moment suspended in time, while his spaces’ sparse furnishings and signs of disrepair evoke a sense of abandonment. This uncanny atmosphere is heightened by the recurring presence of paintings within the depicted spaces, resulting in a disorienting layering of dimensions.
Weischer’s work has been exhibited widely including at Centre Pompidou, Paris; Centro per l’Arte Contemporanea Luigi Pecci, Prato, Italy; Rudolfinum, Prague; SITE Santa Fe, New Mexico; MASS MoCA, North Adams, Massachusetts; Kunstmuseum Den Haag, Netherlands; Ludwig Forum für Internationale Kunst, Aachen, Germany; Museo de Arte de Ponce, Puerto Rico; and in the 51st Venice Biennale. His work is held in the collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Pinault Collection, Paris; Kunstmuseum Den Haag, Netherlands; and Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. His work has been featured in The Brooklyn Rail, Juxtapoz Magazine, Art in America, The New York Times, and Esquire.
