 | | The Hallie Ford Museum of Art (HFMA) exists to support the liberal arts curriculum of Willamette University, and to serve as an intellectual and cultural resource for the City of Salem and beyond, through the collection, preservation, exhibition, and interpretation of historical and contemporary art with an emphasis on regional art. Establishing the museum has set the stage for developing the art collection over time. The current holdings include objects collected throughout the twentieth century (the Byrd and Polleski collections of Native American art, acquired in the 1940's, for example), works purchased with funds provided by Elmer Young, Maribeth Collins, Hallie Ford, and the major gift of the Mark and Janeth Sponenburgh Study Collection. In the past five years, Dan and Nancy Schneider have donated American paintings and sculptures and numerous European and American prints. In addition, collections of the work by a particular artist have been donated in recent years by Ruth Dennis Grover, Jack and Barbara McLarty and the families of the artists Constance Fowler, Jeanne Moment, Stella Douglas, Donald Bunse, Mark Morrison, and others. |
