Take a look at our collection
Exhibitions in the McGee Gallery bring ideas and objects together in new ways, highlighting the breadth and depth of the Art Museum’s permanent collection:
For nearly the entire history of the medium, violins have appeared in photographs in ways that signify talent, status, geography, and culture – and have often been presented as beautiful objects unto themselves. This exhibition, featuring 250 original photographs, spans a period of more than 175 years from the 1840s to today, and includes examples of nearly every photographic process.
War and combat are inextricably part of the human experience, and art helps us make sense of the ways such conflict brings out the worst—and sometimes the best—in us. This exhibition, in conjunction with the WVU class “The Holocaust in East European Literature and Film,” brings together objects in the Art Museum’s collection for viewers to consider how creative expression in any medium helps us to both understand and reckon the violence of war and combat that permeates our world.
Be part of our inner circle. Friends of the Art Museum enjoy members-only opportunities.
Donations support a robust schedule of exhibitions, programs, and events at the Art Museum.
Join the Art Museum of WVU in celebrating Women's History Month and the power of woman artists. The event will include a brief gallery tour as well as a collaborative art-making project, both of which will explore feminist themes and artistic practices. All are welcome!

In April, join Lisa Di Bartolomeo, inaugural Art Museum of WVU Faculty Fellow and Teaching Professor of Russian Studies and Slavic and East European Studies for an exploration of her experience co-curating the exhibition In/Humanity: Combat and War in Art. Highlighting the potential for integrating the Art Museum and its collection into university curricula, Dr. Di Bartolomeo will draw connections between the artwork in the exhibition and her course, “The Holocaust in East European Literature and Film.”
