Welcome
The Dedalus Foundation, founded by the artist Robert Motherwell (1915–1991), fosters public understanding of modern art and modernism by facilitating research, education, publications, and exhibitions in this field.
The Foundation owns the copyrights to all of Motherwell’s works in all mediums—including his writings, both published and unpublished—and inherited all of his professional papers, notebooks, and archives. The Foundation is sponsoring a catalogue raisonné of Robert Motherwell’s paintings, collages, and works on paper. Owners of unique works by Robert Motherwell are kindly asked to send information about those works so that they can be included in this definitive catalogue.
The Dedalus Foundation also has an active grants program, through which it supports both individuals and institutions.
