| Description |
English: The Armand Hammer Museum of Art and Culture Center at UCLA, or the Hammer Museum as it is more commonly known, is an art museum in the Westwood district of Los Angeles, California. It is operated by UCLA's School of the Arts and Architecture.
The museum was founded by Armand Hammer, the late CEO of the Occidental Petroleum Corporation, as a venue to exhibit his extensive art collection. Hammer died 15 days after the museum opened to the public in November 1990. Hammer was a Los Angeles County Museum of Art board member for nearly 20 years, beginning in 1968, and during this time had pledged his extensive collection to the museum. Upset by the museum's plans to display his paintings in galleries that are part of the Frances and Armand Hammer Wing but named for other donors. The Hammer today manages a complex group of art holdings, including the collections amassed by Armand Hammer, and UCLA's Franklin D. Murphy Sculpture Garden and the Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts, a 45,000-piece graphic arts trove. The museum contains a small collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. It holds over 7500 works by French satirist Honoré Daumier, the largest collection outside of Paris. The museum also has fine paintings by Rembrandt, Titian, and Chardin. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_Museum en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
