To promote programs that offer avenues to display, educate and proliferate abstract expressionism.
To provide a “home" for important art (primarily Abstract Expressionism) upon an artist's demise, which includes photographing and cataloging the art.
To ensure that Abstract Expressionism maintains its important place in art history.
To continually analyze the art world to find new, emerging trends and seasoned artists that are significant in scope and in need of support.
To obtain grants for restoration of works of many historically important underknown artists of the 50’s.
To disseminate art to other art institutions and private collections.
