Timeline

1991: American masters Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Robert Ryman, and Richard Serra, among others, enter the collection

Dan Flavin, an artificial barrier of blue, red and blue florescent light, 1968

In 1991 and 1992, the Guggenheim acquired, through purchase and gift, over 350 works of Minimalist, Post-Minimalist, and Conceptual art from the renowned collection of Count Giuseppe Panza di Biumo and his wife, Giovanna. Widely acknowledged as one of the world’s most important holdings of art of the 1960s and 1970s, the Panza Collection gave the Guggenheim depth and quality in its postwar holdings to match the strength of its prewar collection. Its acquisition may be seen as an extension of the Guggenheim’s founding mission to collect and promote abstract art. At the same time it looked forward, allowing the museum to represent the most immediate historical roots of today’s expanded and richly pluralistic art field.  More
