UNM Art Museum pauses gallery exhibitions for ‘Collections Year’

The University of New Mexico Art Museum (UNMAM) has paused its gallery exhibitions to launch a "Collections Year" project, prompted by a major gift of over 100 photographs from collectors Daniel Greenberg and Susan Steinhauser. The museum's galleries are now temporary workspaces where staff and 12 collections apprentices are cataloging, condition-reporting, and processing hundreds of new artworks, including prints and drawings dating back to the 15th century. Study rooms remain open for visitors and classes during this period.
