The Foundation for Art & Design’s primary mission is to present national and international traveling exhibitions, educational programs, and publications. These will encompass a wide array of topics, bringing together different ideas and influences conveyed through the unique perspectives of art and design. In addition to its own curatorial work, The Foundation for Art & Design will present projects developed in collaboration with the artists, collectors, curators, galleries, publishers, and institutions that make up the art and design communities at large. Through its programming, The Foundation for Art & Design will attempt to encourage a greater understanding of cultural, historical, social, political, and environmental issues and how they manifest themselves in contemporary thinking and applications.
