The Daum Museum of Contemporary Art

The Daum Museum of Contemporary Art collects, preserves, interprets and exhibits modern and contemporary works of art and design for the educational enrichment of students, faculty and the general public. Funding for exhibitions is provided by donations to the museum endowment fund, in-kind donations and grants from other foundations and agencies such as the Missouri Arts Council. 

Remix: Selections from the International Collage Center
Sept. 29 – Dec. 16
 
The work of the 90 artists who comprise the exhibition Remix effectively defends the notion that no form of expression has been better suited to the character of both the 20th century and the contemporary moment than collage. Collage’s core conceptual traits—heterogeneity, fragmentation, and appropriation—have allowed artists to be of their own times and to address with clarity and immediacy their circumstances for more than 100 years. Remix explores the history of collage with an inclusive vision that celebrates tradition even as it introduces emerging artists who continue to expand the discourse.
 
Remix Panel Discussion
Sept. 29, 2 p.m.
Stauffacher Theatre
Funded by the Stauffacher Artist & Lecturer Series
 
The Daum Museum presents a panel discussion that explores the unique accomplishments made by collagists during the past 100 years. Panelists include the exhibition co-curators, Pavel Zoubok, director of Pavel Zoubok Gallery, and Rachael Lawe, director of the International Collage Center, as well as two exhibiting artists.
 
The Sum of Its Attributes: The
Dorothy and Herbert Vogel Collection
Feb. 2 - May 26
Dorothy and Herbert Vogel began collecting the work of emerging artists in 1962, eventually assembling a collection of more than 4,000 examples of cutting-edge art by more than 177 artists. In 2008, with the help of the National Gallery of Art, the Vogels launched a national gifts program, Fifty Works for Fifty States, which distributed 2,500 works from the collection, with 50 works going to a selected institution in each of the 50 states. Daum Museum was the Missouri designee. This exhibition celebrates the 50 paintings, sculptures and works on paper the Daum received as beneficiaries of the program. 


Museum hours:
 
11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Friday and 1-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday
