Expanding art beyond the confining walls of a traditional museum building, the Living Art Museum does more than decorate the campus as artworks are exhibited for education and cultural enrichment. The concept behind the Living Art Museum involves a philosophy of inclusiveness—as we attempt to communicate with diverse audiences on terms related to their interests.
The placement of art in various campus buildings is based on themes, concepts, or issues that are relevant to academic disciplines housed in the respective locations. By bringing art to the people rather than requiring people to go to the art, we strive to enhance the quality of life for faculty, staff, students, and members of the broader community that UND serves.
Art may appear anywhere you turn at UND thanks to our Living Art Museum. You might see an 18th century painting in one building and then an Andy Warhol screen print in another.
Expanding art beyond the confining walls of a traditional museum building, the Living Art Museum plays an important role in educating students, allowing us to teach and research what art is and is not.
The Living Art Museum places artworks at numerous satellite gallery locations throughout campus. Some collections are permanent and others rotate.
