Brooklyn Museum

The Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences will develop and implement a Gateway Gallery that will provide an overview of the Museum’s holdings in a 3,600-square-foot space. The objectives of the Gateway Gallery are to orient visitors to the nature and scope of the Museum’s collections, enable people to sample the Museum’s diverse holdings during a brief visit, and help visitors with limited experience in comprehensive art museums understand the geographical and chronological organization of the Museum. The gallery will also propose modes of understanding the collections that complement the art historical structures of the Museum’s permanent collection installations with explorations of themes that transcend historical eras.
