O'Keeffe gave the Gallery 330 more photographic masterpieces in 1980, making the Gallery's Alfred Stieglitz Collection of 1,600 photographs the most complete and finest holding of his work in existence. Between 1990 and 1994 the Gallery began to expand its photography collection by acquiring the work of major photographers in depth, including outstanding photographs by Walker Evans, Paul Strand, and Robert Frank. Over the past five years more than 1,000 photographs have been acquired, including works by more than seventy-five artists not previously represented in the collection. The National Gallery of Art and its Sculpture Garden, located on the National Mall between Third and Ninth Streets at Constitution Avenue, NW, are open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5.p.m. The Gallery is closed on 25 December and 1 January.
Admission is free.
