The Bronx Museum Permanent Collection

The Bronx Museum has over 1,800 works in a permanent collection that spans all types of media and represents diverse contemporary artists from across the globe. Since the collection program began in the 1980s, the Museum has sought to acquire works that reflect the communities of The Bronx, with particular emphasis on artists of color and underrepresented voices.

The Museum is currently digitizing its permanent collection, thanks in part to a Digital Accelerator grant from Bloomberg Philanthropies. This page will be continuously updated as that project continues.
