Brauer Museum of Art

The Brauer Museum of Art was an art museum at Valparaiso University, a private university in Valparaiso, Indiana. It was home to a collection of 19th- and 20th-century American art, world religious art, and Midwestern regional art. It was located in the Valparaiso University Center for the Arts (VUCA). Prior to the museum's opening, the university's collection was housed and displayed within several buildings across campus. It was named the Brauer Museum of Art in 1996 to honor the collection's long-time director and curator, Richard H. W. Brauer. The university began exploring selling parts of its art collection in 2023, to significant controversy and adverse legal action, and closed the museum in the summer of 2024. Provided by Wikipedia
