New Haven, since 1832 · A university museum open to the world
From Boudin, Monet and Gérôme to Van Gogh, Yale's European selection crosses the beach, garden, arena and café to show four radically different ways of putting the world on stage.
Founded in 1832 around the miniature paintings and portraits of John Trumbull, the Yale University Art Gallery is the oldest university art museum in the United States. Trumbull himself designed a first neoclassical building in order to present your images of the American Revolution. The museum today occupies three historic buildings and brings together nearly 300,000 objects from all regions and periods. Its vocation is not only to preserve : the collection constitutes an instrument of research, teaching and learning accessible free of charge to the public. American funds remain at the heart of its identity, but Jarves donations from former Italian masters, the collection modern of the Société Anonyme formed by Katherine Dreier and Marcel Duchamp, as well as important ancient, African, Asian, photographic and graphic ensembles have given the museum a global scope. The selection of reproductions highlights 19th century European painting. Boudin observes the walkers of Trouville; Monet captures the luxuriance of Giverny; Gérôme reconstructs the imperial spectacle of the arena; Van Gogh transforms the Night Café in a space of chromatic tension. The other active works extend this journey with Géricault, Delacroix, Sargent and numerous modernists. The "Yale University Art Gallery" selection notably compares Beach Scene to Trouville and Le Jardin de l'artiste in Giverny, Yale W1622. His reading favors movement.
At Yale, the university museum is not a simple setting: each work becomes a document to be compared, questioned and transmitted.
