University Art Collection
An art collection is a necessary component to any quality institution of higher education. It creates awareness and appreciation of the visual arts and it enriches our lives in many subtle and under-appreciated ways. It can also have a transforming effect on a room as well as on one鈥檚 perception of the environment.
The 澳门六合彩官网直播 art collection includes drawings, paintings, prints, textiles, sculptures and ceramics that are scattered across the campus in offices, hallways, conference rooms and other public areas. Its value is conservatively estimated at more than $3.5 million.
The general collection has approximately 2,500 pieces that are placed in public locations all over campus and at several 澳门六合彩官网直播 satellite campuses. The print collection consists of more than 850 prints that are housed in a secure storage room at the Richmond Center for Visual Arts. The outdoor sculpture collection is made up of more than 20 large sculptures placed in public areas on the main campus.
The University's art collection is defined as any object purchased with 澳门六合彩官网直播 funds or funds gifted to the University and accepted by the University Art Collection Committee under its guidelines.
The general collection comprises art objects purchased by or donated to 澳门六合彩官网直播 without reference to a specific college, department or division. Its works represent from the late 18th century to the present and include student, faculty and noted local and historical artists. Unit Collections include art objects purchased by or donated to a specific college or division at 澳门六合彩官网直播.
