The Modern and Contemporary department comprises artwork created since 1900. Visitors to the museum can see premier examples of paintings and drawings by The Eight (the "Ash Can School"), including Maurice Prendergast's "Landscape with Figures," which was exhibited at the historical 1913 Armory Show in New York City, as well as paintings by Depression-era artists, such as Edward Hopper and Reginald Marsh. Visitors can also see major works by New York School artists Philip Guston, Arshile Gorky, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and David Smith. The museum owns several Charles Burchfield watercolors, bequeathed by collector Edward Root, which are exhibited on a temporary and rotating basis. Recent additions to the collection include works by Ida Applebroog, Louise Bourgeois and Melvin Edwards. The collection also boasts important paintings and sculptures by Alexander Calder, Georgia O'Keeffe and Andy Warhol, as well as large holdings of drawings and prints.

The Modern and Contemporary exhibition program presents an ambitious schedule that includes works in all media. The biennial Sculpture Court Project is an invitational for which artists create monumental, site-specific installations in the centerpiece of the Philip Johnson Building. The department also sponsors a biennial exhibition of works by artists from the Central New York region.
