Description:
The article states that the Busch-Reisinger Museum is unique in the Western Hemisphere. Founded in 1903, it houses one of the most important and comprehensive collections of central and northern European art outside of Europe. The museum's notable strengths include its collection of twentieth-century German works.
During the 1930s and early 1940s, the museum acquired modern German art that had been purged from major museums by the Nazis as "degenerate." Later, it was enriched by gifts from artists and designers associated with the famous Bauhaus school, including the archives of the celebrated architect Walter Gropius. The museum also holds important collections of late medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque sculpture, sixteenth-century painting, and porcelain.
Renovations:
The article mentions that the Busch-Reisinger was temporarily closed for renovations. During this period, its permanent collections were on display at the Fogg while new galleries and offices were constructed in Werner Otto Hall, directly behind the Fogg. Upon completion, Adolphus Busch Hall would reopen to house the modern collections.
