The biggest art giveaway in museum history? Or the biggest museum implosion in art history? It’s a matter of perspective. After the Corcoran Gallery of Art was dissolved in 2012, the National Gallery of Art agreed to act as the steward of its collection, accepting more than 8,600 artworks into its ranks. But the National Gallery didn’t take everything. More than 10,750 remaining paintings, photographs, drawings, prints, and sculptures were to be split up but dispersed within the area. This week, the remaining trustees of the Corcoran announced the tentative final resting places of the encyclopedic art collection of what was once D.C.’s oldest private art museum.

For 22 museums and universities in the D.C. area (and a few beyond), the Corcoran’s loss means their gain. Organizations as diverse as the D.C. Council and the U.S. Supreme Court got in on the action. American University’s Katzen Arts Center took a healthy helping: thousands of works in all media, likely hundreds more than it asked for. (Full disclosure: Some of them include images by City Paper staff photographer and Corcoran grad Darrow Montgomery.) For curators, the Corcoran’s final dissolution may be a bonanza, but it’s still a net loss for viewers: Collections that should have been kept whole are now divided, and works that had a rationale in the Corcoran may disappear into the vaults for good. Here’s a look at where you can find pieces of the Corcoran collection now, and highlights of each institution’s acquisition.
