PERMANENT COLLECTION
The Samuel P. Harn Museum of Art is charged with the
responsibility of consolidating and caring for the
diverse collections of art assembled at the University of
Florida over the past several decades and is committed
not only to the expansion of these collections, but to the
development of strong holdings in other areas as well.
The collection currently consists of more than 6,000
works of art in various media, including ceramics,
painting, sculpture, prints and photography. The works
represented are from the Americas, Asia, Africa and
Europe. Our exhibition areas devoted to the permanent
collection frequently change as existing holdings are
expanded and new holdings are developed. Traveling
exhibitions drawn from our permanent collection are
also organized in an effort to reach the widest possible
audience.
