For over twenty years, Dia Center for the Arts (formerly the Dia Art Foundation)
has played a vital and original role among arts institutions in New York.
As well as nationally and internationally, by initiating, supporting, presenting,
and preserving projects in nearly every artistic medium, and creating a primary
locus for interdisciplinary art and criticism. Dia's first major projects,
undertaken in the late 1970s, were long-term sited works of art not likely
to be accommodated by conventional museums because of their nature or scale.
Many of these projects are ongoing, including; Walter De Maria's The Lightning
Field (1977), The Broken Kilometer (1979), and The New York Earth Room (1977);
the massive installation of works by Donald Judd and John Chamberlain at Marfa,
Texas (now operated by the Chinati Foundation), the installation of Dan Flavin
at Bridgehampton; and others. From 1974 to 1984, Dia collected in depth the
works of a focused group of artists, including Joseph Beuys, John Chamberlain,
Walter De Maria, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, Imi Knoebel, Blinky Palermo , Fred
Sandback, Cy Twombly and Andy Warhol, all recognized as among the most important
artists of the last three decades.

The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is the new home of the UBC (The
University of British Columbia, Vancouver, B.C. Canada.) Fine Arts Gallery.The
gallery's mandate is to promote understanding and discussion of fine arts
and issues in art history, criticism and curating. It is also in the fortunate
position of promoting and analyzing some of Canada's most important contemporary
artists. In addition to its temporary exhibitions, the gallery also houses
the University's 1500 piece permanent art collection.

NLM's History of Medicine Division has launched Historical Anatomies
on the Web, a new digital project that broadens access to the Library's rich
collection of illustrated anatomical books, which date from the 15th century.
The new Web site emphasizes images rather than text. So far, the site includes
120 images from five anatomical books by Andreas Vesalius, Johannes de Ketham,
Magnus Hundt, Albrecht Drer, and Bernardino Genga. Images from nearly 20 other
anatomical works will be added in the future.

The Tate houses the national collections of British Art and of international
modern art. Currently, around 8000 works are illustrated - this number will
continue to increase as they scan more images. The collection of historic
British art ranges from the sixteenth century to the present day. Highlights
include major works by Hogarth, Gainsborough, Reynolds, Stubbs, Wright of
Derby, Blake, Palmer, Constable, the Pre-Raphaelites, Whistler, and Sargent.
Home to the Turner Bequest, the Gallery holds the largest collection of paintings,
drawings and watercolours by JMW Turner.
The collection of international modern art features important works by artists
such as Picasso, Matisse, Duchamp, Epstein, Spencer, Mondrian, Gabo, Nicholson,
Hepworth, Moore, Magritte, Dalí, Giacometti, Dubuffet, Bacon, Pollock,
Rothko, Warhol and Beuys. The collection also includes works in all media
by leading contemporary artists in Britain and from around the world, for
example, Freud, Richter, Hamilton, Horn, Hirst and Whiteread.

reference work, either in print or online.
