The Museum was founded more than 125 years ago and is the largest and most significant\u00a0art museum in Wisconsin. It houses a rich collection of over 30,000 works, with strengths in 19th- and 20th-century American and European art, contemporary art, and American decorative arts. It is the world\u2019s leading repository for work by untrained creators and has one of the largest collections of works by Georgia O\u2019Keeffe. The Museum\u2019s celebrated Santiago Calatrava\u2013designed Quadracci Pavilion, completed in 2001, showcases both Museum-produced and traveling feature exhibitions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RESTORE. REINSTALL. REIMAGINE.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Beginning in fall 2014, the Museum began an ambitious project to renovate its two oldest buildings, the Eero Saarinen\u2013designed War Memorial Center (1957) and the David Kahler\u2013designed addition (1975), which house the Museum\u2019s Collection Galleries. Increased gallery space,\u00a0including an entire floor dedicated to photography and new media, an improved gallery layout,\u00a0and a new<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>lakeside entrance are among the improvements planned. The collections will be off view through fall 2015; however, the Museum is open throughout construction, with a vibrant schedule of exciting exhibitions, educational offerings, and special programs in the Quadracci Pavilion.
