Met acquires Arbus archives
Art in America, Feb, 2008
The Metropolitan Museum of Art recently announced that it has acquired the complete archives of Diane Arbus (1923-1971). Donated by the Diane Arbus estate, the gift and promised gifts include hundreds of photographs, negatives, contact prints of 7,500 rolls of film, plus notebooks, personal papers and correspondence.
Much of this material was featured in "Diane Arbus Revelations," a traveling exhibition that appeared at the Met in 2005. Also part of the donation is Arbus's library and her extensive collection of other artists' photographs. The Met will collaborate with the estate on preserving and cataloguing the Diane Arbus archives, and eventually making the material available to scholars, artists and the general public.
