| A Legacy of Collecting: The Vincent A. Hartgen Years, 1946 - 1982Vincent Hartgen arrived at the University of Maine in 1946 as the founding member of the Department of Art as well as the Museum of Art (then known as the Art Collection). Hartgen’s unique energy and knowledge enabled him to collect with an informed vision emphasizing works on paper, something that was dear to him as an artist. The museum acquired 3,900 works of art in Hartgen’s 36 years as director. The depth of the museum’s collection remains a testament to his tireless pursuits.
