Fill the Gap!
The Luce Foundation Center for American Art is the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s visible storage facility, with over 3,300 works of art on display in 64 secure glass cases.
Artworks often leave the Luce Foundation Center to go on view elsewhere in the museum, to go out on loan, or to go to the Lunder Conservation Center. If an artwork will be gone for more than twelve months, we are tasked to replace it from the collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Here, we ask for your help!
Check out the images in the set to find the current gap. If the recommended artwork fits within the gap, it will be submitted to our Chief Curator for approval. Once approved, it will be installed and the person that selected it will be credited on the object's label. We document the entire process here and consistently monitor the comments.
Current Gap: Case 10B
Good luck!
