The Menil Collection embodies the ideals and values of its founders, John and Dominique de Menil, that art is vital to human life and should be readily accessible to all persons. Online, the Menil Collection offers its public programs on YouTube featuring conversations and lectures with artists such as Trenton Doyle Hancock, Sam Gilliam, Glenn Ligon, Charles Ray, Richard Serra, Amy Sillman, Danh Vō, and Kara Walker, among others.
Many of the Menil’s most beloved objects are displayed in the online collection including the Arts of Africa, Americas and Pacific Northwest, Pacific Islands, the Ancient World, Medieval and Byzantine Art, Modern and Contemporary Art, and its unparalleled holdings of Surrealist Art. The Menil also offers a number of online publications.
