scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents note
content: This subseries documents many aspects of the department's daily business. Files primarily contain correspondence with artists, galleries, and art institutions and are supplemented by a small number of general subject files that focus on administrative activities, exhibitions, or the department's interest in specific art media. In addition to correspondence, individual files may contain photographs of artists and works of art, financial records, details of exhibitions, shipping and loan records, and printed matter, such as exhibition catalogs and news clippings.

Theresa D. Parker's personal correspondence can be found scattered throughout, in addition to substantial correspondence with several of the artists represented by the department. A portion of the correspondence from the late 1970s concerns the eventual closing of the department.
