## About Palm Springs Art Museum

Palm Springs Art Museum creates transformative experiences that expand our understanding of ourselves and the world. The museum is committed to harnessing the rich legacy, diverse creative opportunities, and philanthropic support that is shaping our museum's future and make an impact upon the evolving cultural landscape of our region. Palm Springs Art Museum's world-class collection currently totals over 14,000 objects concentrated in areas of Architecture and Design, Art of the Western Americas, Modern and Contemporary Art, Photography, and Studio Glass. The collection also includes architect Albert Frey's iconic masterpiece Frey House II, located on the hillside above the museum. The modern and contemporary collection is at the heart of the museum's identity and its mission. It contains approximately 3,000 sculptures, paintings and prints and 2,000 fine art photographs. Significant paintings, sculptures, and works on papers by earlier modernists illuminate the development of modern art's experimentation with form and materials. The museum's dynamic collection of contemporary art since 1960 places special focus on artists from California alongside artists working throughout the United States and internationally.
