The museum has more than 7,000 artists represented in the drove.

Since 1951, the museum has maintained a traveling exhibition program; as of 2013, more than 2.5 million visitors have seen the exhibitions.

History [edit]

The museum's history can be traced to the creation of the Smithsonian Establishment in 1846. The act of Congress establishing the Smithsonian called for it to include "a gallery of art".^[8] In its early years, however, fiddling effort was put into developing the art collection, equally Smithsonian Secretary Joseph Henry preferred to focus on scientific research.^{[nine] [10]} The collection was first on brandish in the original Smithsonian Building (now known every bit the Castle). In 1865, a fire destroyed much of the drove.^[xi] Those art holdings that survived were mostly loaned to the Library of Congress and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in the post-obit decades.^[12] In 1896, the artworks were brought dorsum to the Smithsonian, later Congress appropriated money to construct a fireproof room for them.^[13]

The Smithsonian began to refer to its fine art collection as the National Gallery of Fine art in 1906, in connection with efforts to receive Harriet Lane Johnston's art collection, which she had ancestral to the "national fine art gallery".^[fourteen] The collection grew as the Smithsonian buildings grew, and the collection was housed in 1 or more Smithsonian buildings on the National Mall.^[three]

In 1920, the National Gallery of Art was separated from the National Museum, becoming its ain branch of the Smithsonian, with William Henry Holmes every bit its first director.^{[15] [16]} By this time, space had become critical: "Collections to the value of several millions of dollars are in storage or temporarily on exhibition and are crowding out important exhibits and producing a congested condition in the Natural History, Industrial Arts, and Smithsonian Buildings".^[17] In 1924, builder Charles A. Platt drew up preliminary plans for a National Gallery of Art to exist built on the block next to the Natural History Museum.^[17] However, this building was never constructed.^[18]

In 1937, the National Gallery of Art became the National Collection of Fine Arts (NCFA), because Andrew Mellon insisted that the previous moniker be given to a new institution formed through his donation of a large fine art drove.^{[19] [20] [21]}

By the 1950'southward, the NCFA still occupied a small-scale space in the Natural History Building.^[22] In 1958, Congress finally granted the NCFA a home, the Old Patent Office Building, which was about to be vacated by the U.S. Civil Service Commission.^{[22] [23]} The building would exist shared with the planned National Portrait Gallery, with the NCFA occupying the northern half of the building.^{[24] [25]} Renovation work on the edifice began in 1964.^[26] The NCFA opened in its new home on May half-dozen, 1968.^[27]

The museum's relocation came at an unfortunate time, as the neighborhood had been devastated a month earlier by the Martin Luther King bump-off riots.^[28] The NCFA struggled to attract visitors over the following decades, as the streets around information technology remained bleak and lonely.^[29] This would remain a factor until the tardily 1990's, when the piece of work of the Pennsylvania Avenue Evolution Corporation and the opening of the MCI Center (at present Capital One Loonshit) beyond the street from the museum sparked a revitalization of the neighborhood.^[30]

The NCFA gained a new branch in 1972, opening the Renwick Gallery, dedicated to design and crafts, in a historic edifice virtually the White House.^[31]

In 1980, the proper noun was inverse to the National Museum of American Art, to better distinguish it from other federal fine art museums and to emphasize its focus on American artists.^{[32] [33]}

In January 2000, the museum closed to brainstorm a planned three-year, $60-million renovation of the Patent Role Building.^[34] To keep the museum's collection accessible to the public during the closure, many of the artworks were sent out in a "Treasures to Become" serial of traveling exhibitions, billed as "the largest museum tour in history".^{[35] [36]} The museum'due south name was changed to the Smithsonian American Fine art Museum in Oct 2000 and then that the museum and its traveling exhibitions could benefit from the Smithsonian's make recognition.^[37]

Afterward renovations were underway, the plans were broadened in an attempt to restore much of the building'southward original elegance.^[38] Many of the building'southward exceptional architectural features were restored: porticos modeled after the Parthenon in Athens, a curving double staircase, colonnades, vaulted galleries, big windows, and skylights as long as a metropolis cake.^{[39] [40] [7]} New features added to the building included the Lunder Conservation Center, the Luce Foundation Center for American Fine art, Nan Tucker McEvoy Auditorium, and the Robert and Arlene Kogod Courtyard.^[40] Meanwhile, the museum'southward offices, library, and storage were moved to the nearby Victor Building, freeing up valuable infinite and allowing the museum to brandish 4 times as many artworks as before.^{[34] [41]} The renovation ultimately took half dozen years and $283 one thousand thousand.^[42] The museum and the National Portrait Gallery reopened their combined edifice, renamed as the Donald West. Reynolds Center for American Art and Portraiture, on July 1, 2006.^[43]

The Smithsonian American Art Museum's chief edifice is shared with the National Portrait Gallery, as seen from Thou Street NW in 2011
