McNay ARt Museum opened<br />

to the public in 1954.<br />

Foundede by Marion Koogler<br />

McNay, an artist and art<br />

educator, the museum began<br />

with her superb collection of<br />

modern European and<br />

American art. Formed to show<br />

the development of modern<br />

art, her collection has<br />

strengths in French painting of<br />

the Post-Impressionist period<br />

and the early School of Paris,<br />

as well as in contemporary<br />

American works on paper.<br />

Since the museum's founding,<br />

its collection has increased in<br />

both size and range, while<br />

maintatining the primary focus<br />

on European and American art<br />

of the 19th and 20th centuries.<br />

New eras of strength include<br />

American painting between the<br />

world warsm French sculpture<br />

of the 19th and early 20th<br />

century, and American<br />

sculpture since World War II,<br />

including worls sited on the<br />

with instructions <strong>for</strong> making<br />

the puppets and costumes and<br />

<strong>for</strong> producing the puppet<br />

show.<br />
