Saint Louis Art Museum, 2011

The Saint Louis Art Museum is one of the main U.S. art museums, with paintings, sculptures, cultural objects, and ancient masterpieces from all corners of the world. Its three-story building stands in Woods Park in St. Louis, Missouri, where it is visited by upward to a one-half million people every twelvemonth. Access is free through a subsidy from the cultural revenue enhancement commune for St. Louis City and County.^[ane]

In improver to the featured exhibitions, the museum offers rotating exhibitions and installations. These include the Currents serial, which features contemporary artists, too equally regular exhibitions of new media fine art and works on paper.^[2]

History [edit]

The museum was founded in 1879^[3] as the Saint Louis School and Museum of Fine Arts, an independent entity inside Washington University in St. Louis.^[4] Information technology was housed in a building commissioned by Wayman Crow every bit a memorial to his son, Wayman Crow Jr., and designed by Boston architects Peabody and Stearns for 19th and Lucas Place (at present Locust Street). The school, led by director Halsey Ives, educated two generations of St. Louis artists and craftspeople, and offered studio and fine art history classes supported by a museum collection.

After the closing of the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, the museum and school moved from downtown to ane of the few permanent remnants of the off-white, the Palace of Fine Arts. The building was designed by Cass Gilbert, who took inspiration from the Baths of Caracalla in Rome, Italy.^[5]

Ives introduced a neb into the General Associates for an art tax to support the maintenance of the museum.^[six] The bill was approved past the citizens of Saint Louis past a nearly four-to-1 margin. Still, the city'southward controller refused to distribute the tax to the museum's lath of control, as it was not a municipal entity and so had no right to tax coin. The controller's position was upheld in 1908 past the Missouri Supreme Courtroom. This caused the formal separation of the museum from the university in 1909, a split which was the showtime of three borough institutions:

a newly created, public City Art Museum, to remain in the Palace of Fine Arts, the organisation which evolved into the Saint Louis Art Museum;^[vii] an organizing lath was assigned to have control in 1912.^[8]
the Mildred Lane Kemper Fine art Museum affiliated with the individual Washington Academy, whose collection was lent to the City Art Museum for several years,^[9] and now part of the Sam Trick School of Pattern & Visual Arts
the St. Louis School of Fine Arts, also role of Washington University. In 1905 Ives had been immediately succeeded every bit director by Edmund H. Wuerpel; equally of September 1909 Wuerpel advertised classes at Skinker and Lindell.^[10] Wuerpel remained director until his retirement in 1939.^[11] The school is now likewise part of the Sam Fox Schoolhouse of Design & Visual Arts.

The edifice at 19th and Lucas Place fell into disrepair, and was eventually demolished in 1919.^[12]

During the 1950s, the museum added an extension to include an auditorium for films, concerts and lectures.

In 1971, efforts to secure the museum's financial future led voters in St. Louis City and Canton to corroborate the creation of the Metropolitan Zoological Park and Museum District (ZMD). This expanded the tax base for the 1908 tax to include St. Louis County.^[13] In 1972, the museum was again renamed, to the Saint Louis Art Museum.^[13]

Today, the museum is supported financially by the taxation, donations from individuals and public associations, sales in the Museum Shop, and foundation support.^[14]

Expansion [edit]

Plans to expand the museum, which existed in the 1995 Forest Park Main Plan and the museum's 2000 Strategic Programme, began in earnest in 2005, when the museum board selected the British architect Sir David Chipperfield to pattern the expansion; Michel Desvigne was selected as mural builder. The St. Louis-based house, Hellmuth, Obata, and Kassabaum (HOK) was the architect of record to work with the construction team.

On November 5, 2007, museum officials released the blueprint plans to the public and hosted public conversations about those plans. A model of the new building was displayed in the museum's Sculpture Hall throughout the construction project. In 2008, citing the declining state of the economic system, the museum announced that information technology would delay the showtime of the expansion, whose cost was and so estimated at $125 million.^[15]

Construction began in 2009; the museum remained open.^[16] ^[17] The expansion added more than 224,000 square feet (20,800 g²) of gallery infinite, including an underground garage, within the charter lines of the belongings. Money for the projection was raised through private gifts to the uppercase campaign from individuals, foundations and corporations, and from gain from the sale of tax-exempt bonds. The fundraising campaigned covered the $130-1000000 price of construction and a $31.2 million increment to the museum's endowment to back up incremental costs of operating the larger facility. The expanded facility opened in the summer of 2013.

Collection [edit]

The collection of the Saint Louis Art Museum contains more than 34,000 objects dating from antiquity to the present. The collection is divided into nine areas:

American
Aboriginal and Egyptian
Africa, Oceania, Americas
Asian
Decorative Arts and Design
European to 1800
Islamic

Prints, Drawings, and Photographs

The modern fine art drove includes works past the European masters Matisse, Gauguin, Monet, Picasso, Corrado Giaquinto, Giambattista Pittoni and Van Gogh. The museum'due south particularly stiff collection of 20th-century German paintings includes the world'due south largest Max Beckmann collection, which includes Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery.^[18] In contempo years, the museum has been actively acquiring postal service-war German art to complement its Beckmanns, such as works by Joseph Beuys, Gerhard Richter, Martin Kippenberger, Sigmar Polke, and Anselm Kiefer.^[16] The collection also includes Chuck Close's Keith (1970).^[19]

The collections of Oceanic and Mesoamerican works, as well equally handwoven Turkish rugs, are among the finest in the world. The museum holds the Egyptian mummy Amen-Nestawy-Nakht, and ii mummies on loan from Washington University.^[20] Its collection of American artists includes the largest U.S.-museum collection of paintings by George Caleb Bingham.^{[ citation needed ]}

The collection contains at to the lowest degree six pieces that Nazis confiscated from their own museums as degenerate.^[21] These include Max Beckmann's "Christ and the Woman Taken in Infidelity" which came to the museum through a New York art dealer, Curt Valentin, who specialized in Nazi confiscations, and Matisse's "Bathers with a Turtle" which Joseph Pulitzer purchased at the Galerie Fischer auction held in the Grand Hôtel National, Lucerne, Switzerland, June xxx, 1939.^[21] ^[22] ^[23]

In the context of the museum'south 2013 expansion, British creative person Andy Goldsworthy created Stone Body of water, a site-specific work for a narrow space between the old and new buildings. Twenty-five tightly packed, ten-foot-high arches made of native limestone rise in a sunken courtyard. The artist was inspired by the fact that the sedimentary rock was formed when the region was a shallow sea in Prehistoric times.^[16]

In 2021, the museum received a promised gift of 22 paintings and sculptures from the collection of the American curator and philanthropist Emily Rauh Pulitzer, the widow of the media heir Joseph Pulitzer Jr. The donation includes works past 17 European and American artists, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Constantin Brâncuși, Joan Miró, Philip Guston, Ellsworth Kelly and others.^[24]
