Points of Resonance: The Museum Project Gift

Points of Resonance: The Museum Project Gift blends recently acquired contemporary photography with similarly themed works from the Muskegon Museum of Art’s permanent collection. The result is an exploration of shared aesthetics and visual and conceptual themes.

The Museum Project, established by artists and curators Robert von Sternberg and Darryl Curran in 2012, promotes the collection and exhibition of contemporary photography by museums and universities. Each year, the participating artists offer, free of cost, archival prints of their artwork to interested institutions. As of 2017, the artists of The Museum Project have donated over 3,300 photographs to the permanent collections of 125 museums, 10 library special collections, and 6 municipal or hospital foundations in 46 U.S. states, Washington D.C., Australia, Canada, and France.
