A Celebration Of Donors
During the Art Museum’s fortieth anniversary year, we are celebrating the passion and insight of our donors whose generosity has meaningfully shaped the collection. We open this year recognizing significant gifts from Robert C. May, George and Susan Proskauer, Gerald T. and Ann W. Silvers, and Mr. and Mrs. James Wenneker.
The name Robert C. May is intimately connected to photography at UK. The endowment he created funds a highly respected annual lecture series, and has thus far supported the purchase of 465 works, making photography a key component of the Museum’s holdings. His bequest also included approximately one hundred works by leading twentieth-century photographers including Berenice Abbot, Ansel Adams, Imogen Cunningham, Walker Evans, and Ralph Eugene Meatyard, as well as almost 1,300 of his own photographs.
