Museum Collection
The Tampa Museum of Art's collection of contemporary art is in storage
while TMA is housed in its temporary location at
2306 N. Howard Avenue in
Tampa. Construction of the new museum facility in downtown Tampa's Curtis Hixon Park will begin in early 2008, with the opening of the new building
expected in the fall of 2009.
Sculpture
The sculptural objects in the collection are
varied in their materials, methods, and aesthetic expression. Sculpture by renown artists
such as Hiram Powers, Frederick W. MacMonnies, Isidore-Jules Bonheur, Jacques Lipchitz,
and Conrad Marca-Relli are a few of the highlights in a diverse collection that also
includes a significant number of works by regional artists. In addition, there is an
extensive study collection of the work of the twentieth-century American sculptor C. Paul
Jennewein, comprised of over 2000 objects, drawings, paintings, and related studio
materials that were bequeathed to the museum in 1978 by the Jennewein family.
