White House art collection

Jump to Comments

What an incredible opportunity, to decorate your home with some of the world’s greatest artworks.  The White House is now home not just to President Obama and his family, but to the largest collection of modern and abstract artwork ever assembled by a sitting president.

The White House is a home, workplace, and national symbol. It also houses an art collection that represents the geographic diversity of the United States, and the values, tastes, and accomplishments of American society.
