Classical to Contemporary Art from the University of Cincinnati

This exhibition showcases a careful selection of works that reveal collecting practices over 200 years. A special attempt has been made to contextualize the university’s contemporary holdings with examples from history. These offer cultural, conceptual, and technical comparisons. Great universities hold great art collections that offer inspiration, knowledge, and learning. They present opportunities to appreciate and interact with original works and enrich our overall human experience. They are vital resources for the local community and beyond. They connect creativity across millennia and inspire future generations to dream. UC’s student organizations, faculty, and staff, as well as benefactors and patrons, stimulated and contributed to the growth of the university’s holdings. The collection is particularly strong in works by regional artists, many of whom have connections to higher education both past and present.
