In addition to the exhibition spaces, the Gallery Program maintains and manages the University’s sixteen collections. The significance of the development of the University’s collections is two fold: (a) the collections are available to students, faculty, and scholars for study and research, and (b) the collections are intended to be used in thematic exhibitions and made available, along with educational materials, to the campus population and the public.
Information and images from four of the University’s collections follow. The two most visible collections are the Sculpture on Campus collection of twenty-one large outdoor sculptures by contemporary artists of national reputation, and the assorted paintings and decorative arts housed in Hobart Manor, the 1877 manor house that is the centerpiece of this suburban campus. The two most frequently exhibited collections are the Artists’ Books Collection of over 300 one-of-a-kind or limited edition books created by artists from around the world from 1960 to the present, and the Joan and Gordon Tobias Collection of African and Oceanic Art.
