Art represents the relationship between people and place.
The Benedictine University Art Collection is eclectic and known for its range of artistic style and media. This collection enlivens our public spaces, enables the community to view art up close and encourages a vibrant cultural discourse within our university and throughout the local, regional and international community which is rooted in the idea of the Catholic intellectual tradition.
