Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Art Gallery at Columbia University

The Wallach Art Gallery advances Columbia’s historical, critical and creative engagement with the visual arts. Serving as both a laboratory and a forum, the Wallach offers opportunities for curatorial practice and discourse, while bridging the diverse approaches to the arts at the University with a welcome broader public. The Wallach presents projects that: are organized by graduate students and faculty in the Department of Art history and Archaeology or by other Columbia scholars, focus on the contemporary artists of the campus and its communities and offers new scholarship on University special collections. Established in 1986, the Wallach Art Gallery is the University’s premier visual arts space. It is a platform for critically acclaimed exhibitions, a dynamic range of programming and publications that contribute to scholarship.
