few masterpieces, but something that
can create a full-worked story about
the history of modernism,” Siedell
said.
“It’s also important for our audi
ence to learn something about anoth
er institution and learn that there are
other institutions out there that are
similar to ours that have similar
advantages and disadvantages and
opportunities.”
Faxon agreed when the two
museums worked together, they
encountered uncanny results.
“It’s amazing to look at the two
collections and see how similar the
vision was for both of the institu
tions,” she said. “There was a com
mon sense of what was great in
American art, and for that reason this
was a perfect collaboration.”
Despite the show’s not opening
until this weekend, Siedell said it was
already a great success - one he
hoped to duplicate in the future.
“We’re already talking about
opportunities to collaborate again,”
he said. “This has been a great oppor
tunity to set a (precedent) for work
ing with other institutions.”

Sheldon rents space
to house collection
By Sarah Baker
Senior editor
Because of the ever-growing size
of the Sheldon Memorial Art
Gallery’s permanent collection, the
museum has leased a space off cam
pus to store its vast collection of
American art.
Dan Siedell, curator and interim
director of the gallery, said this space,
unlike spaces the gallery has used to
store art in the past, is more secure
and climate-controlled.
“This space is one that we really
need to store art,” Siedell said. “We
need a place to have trucks take art,
unload it and pick up art. This is very
important for us to have as we do ren
ovations to the gallery.”
Siedell said he was not sure how
much art will be stored in the space,
but none is in there yet.
“When the gallery was built in
1963, the permanent collection con
sisted of4,000 works,” he said. “Now
it has 12,000. We just need to figure
out exactly what to do with this space
now that we have it.”
Linda Cowdin, an administrative
technology vice chancellor for busi
ness and finance, who worked on
leasing the building, said the lease is
through the Las Brisas Land
” This space is
one that we really
need to store art.”
DanSiedell
curator of the Sheldon
Development Company.
Located at 2600 Kimco Drive, the
building has 6,836 square feet of
warehouse space for the museum.
She said it has been rented under
a yearlong lease with options to
renew, and annually, the space costs
$37,666 to rent, or about $3,000 per
month.
“(The lease) could go on for sev
eral years, depending on the need,”
Cowdin said.
The space is equipped with 24
hour security, and the temperature
and humidity also can be controlled
to make sure the works aren’t dam
aged while in storage.
Siedell said the money to pay for
the lease is not coming directly from
the Sheldon’s budget, but instead
from the university’s administrative
budget.
“This demonstrates the adminis
tration and the chancellor are very
serious about the Sheldon,” he said.
