The Patrick and Beatrice Haggerty Museum of Art, sometimes referred to simply as "the Haggerty", is located at 13th and Clybourn Streets on the campus of Marquette University in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. The museum opened in 1984 following a university collaborative effort that was chaired by professor Curtis L. Carter.[1] The construction site was decorated by a mural called Construction Fence by American artist and social activist, Keith Haring. The Director of the Haggerty Museum of Art is John McKinnon.
The construction of the museum was made possible by a donation from alumnus and co-founder of Texas Instruments, Inc., Patrick E. Haggerty, and his wife, Beatrice, for whom the museum is named. Haggerty and his wife donated an art collection to the university.
The Haggerty’s permanent collection includes approximately 10,000 works of art, with particular strength in European paintings of the late Renaissance and early modern eras, 20th-century German art, modern and contemporary photographs, and fine art prints by post-war and contemporary artists. Most of these objects can be viewed through the Museum's online collection search, object records are regularly added and updated. Highlights include:
