The permanent art collection of St. Bonaventure University encompasses a broad spectrum of art and historical artifacts that span from the beginning of Western civilization into the 21st century.
Always exhibited are paintings, sculpture, ivories, works on paper, photographs, rare books and manuscripts, Greek antiquities, and non-Western objects from China, Japan and Thailand.
Last season, the permanent art collection of St. Bonaventure University was re-installed for the anniversary year with the new addition of 13 Baroque paintings of Franciscan Saints. Click here for more....
