Grohmann Museum
Home to the world鈥檚 most comprehensive art collection dedicated to the evolution of human work.
Google Arts & Culture
Through Google Arts and Culture, the Grohmann Museum can now be explored by people around the world who would have normally been limited by physical proximity.
History
Founded in 2011, Google Arts & Culture strives to connect museumgoers to an infinite library of exhibitions, statues, and other memorable works of art. Digitally preserving that art creates inspirational opportunities for future generations. James Kieselburg, the Grohmann Museum director, said, “The Grohmann Museum is joining the Google Cultural Institute to make the collection more widely accessible to a global audience. There's no substitute for the real thing, but the interactive tools that will be available alongside our collection online will certainly enhance the experience for remote visitors." Take a look for yourself the wonders a simple internet connection can provide.
Digital Exhibitions
Masterworks
A selection of exceptionally beautiful and important paintings from the Man at Work Collection housed at the Grohmann Museum at Milwaukee School of Engineering.
Manufacturing Music
It takes work to create art. An artist may spend months on a single painting; a musician rehearses for hours before an audience hears them play. Every performance requires countless hands who set up the stage, the lights, and build the set.
Sculptures of Workers
Captivating images of miners, steel workers, and more from famous sculptors including Constantin Meunier, Frederic Remington and Max Kalish, among others.
German Art & Artists
Featuring a selection of German paintings from the Grohmann Museum collection with insight on the 鈥楬eroic School鈥� of industrial painting.
Carl Spitzweg in Milwaukee
Few artists permeated 19th century German culture like Carl Spitzweg. Some twenty-plus works by Spitzweg have found their way to Milwaukee. This one-of-a-kind exhibition evokes affection, love, humor and other emotions that translate easily to our current age.
