Book Synopsis
Beautifully designed, the book reveals the stories behind the collection of Vassar College art museum.

Making & Meaning features select works from the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center of Vassar College, located in Poughkeepsie, New York. Through illustrated essays and entries, as well as poetry and a timeline, this book reveals the profound richness of a collection extending from antiquity to the present day.

Showcasing a wide variety of artistic work and contributions, the volume explores paintings, prints, photographs, decorative arts, and sculptures from this stunning collection. Written by Vassar curators, faculty, community partners, students and art historians, the texts demonstrate how the art museum at Vassar originated in 1864 and now stands, like many American academic museums, at the forefront of the rapidly evolving museum field.
