| schema:abstract | ""On the occasion of the groundbreaking for the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center of Vassar College, a student publication posed the question, 'What will the Loeb Art Center mean for Vassar?' This richly illustrated book considers responses to this question more than three decades later, on the thirtieth anniversary of the Loeb's opening in 1993. Through an introductory essay on the history and role of the art museum at Vassar, a related timeline, catalogue entries of individual works of art, and essays focused on thematic groups of objects, this publication explores the Loeb and its predecessor, the Vassar College Art Gallery. The beginnings of the collection date to Vassar's founding in 1861, making it the first American college or university to include a museum in its original mandate. The depth and dynamism of this art collection, which spans from antiquity to the present day, is evident in the variety of subjects covered by the book's texts, whose authors include Vassar curators, faculty members, community partners, and art historians who studied at the college. Applying their varied expertise and perspectives to signature works from the Loeb, they critically examine the collection and its formation over time, as well as its relationship to teaching and learning on campus and beyond." -- Provided by publisher"@en |
