The Marsden Hartley Legacy Project has officially launched a comprehensive digital catalogue raisonné featuring over 1,600 paintings, drawings, and prints by the American modernist. Developed in association with the Bates College Museum of Art and led by art historian Gail R. Scott, the free online resource includes detailed provenance, exhibition histories, and bibliographies, documenting more than 2,200 exhibitions and 2,100 publications related to the artist.
This digital initiative is a significant milestone for American modernism, providing scholars and the public with unprecedented access to Hartley’s complete body of work. By centralizing decades of research into an accessible, searchable platform, the project ensures the preservation of Hartley’s legacy and facilitates new scholarship on his influential role in 20th-century art history.
