This presentation will introduce you to the McMaster Museum of Art, M(M)A a university-based public art gallery in the heart of the McMaster University campus. The museum creates inclusive, dynamic, and experiential relationships between peoples and artistic practices through educational programming for people of all ages.

At the heart of the collection is the Dr. Herman Herzog Levy Collection and Bequest, a noteworthy collection of European historical and modern art donated to the museum in 1984. This collection includes paintings by Claude Monet, Gustave Caillebotte, Gustave Courbet, Camille Pissarro, Chaim Soutine, J.M.W. Turner, Vincent van Gogh as well as works on paper by Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Francisco Goya and much more.

The story of the Levy Collection and the McMaster Museum of Art will be illustrated with significant works of art and new acquisitions in our collection. This will include some research-based exhibitions and a significant shift in our collections and programming practice into the 2020s as the M(M)A stretches beyond traditional art museum boundaries.
