\nDESCRIPTION: This new structure encompasses 65,000 square-feet comprised of five pavilions that house three large gallery spaces, a 173-seat auditorium, museum shop, classrooms, administrative offices and a caf\u00e9. One of the three gallery spaces displays work from the museum\u2019s permanent collection, organized in thematic exhibitions to complement coursework and reflect the scholarly interests of Duke faculty. The two other gallery pavilions host a rotating schedule of traveling exhibitions. Highlights of the museum\u2019s permanent collection of 13,000 works of art include the Brummer Collection of Medieval and Renaissance Art, the George Harley Memorial Collection of African Art, a classical collection, more than 3,000 works of art of the ancient Americas and \u201cSomething All Our Own\u201d the Grant Hill Collection of African American Art. The latter exhibition includes collages, paintings, prints and mixed media works by artists such as Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, John Biggers, Malcolm Brown, Phoebe Beasley and John Coleman. As you might imagine, they are from the personal collection of Duke Alumnus and NBA All-Star Grant Hill.
