Vincent
Hartgen
American
1914-2003
Vincent
Hartgen was a legendary figure and pioneer in the development
of the visual arts in Maine. As an artist, Hartgen exhibited
at the Beaux-Arts Institute of Design, the Brooklyn Museum, the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, the De Cordova Museum, and the Chase
Gallery in New York, among many other venues. His work is in
major public and private collections. Perhaps more importantly,
in 1946 Hartgen developed the visual arts program at the University
of Maine, Orono. Soon after, Hartgen was the director and curator
of the University's Art Gallery. Hartgen was a trustee of the
Haystack School, the commissioner of Maine State Commission of
Arts & Humanities, and the recipient of numerous awards including
the University of Maine Alumni Association's Black Bear Award,
the University of Maine Distinguished Professor Award, and the
Arts and the Humanities Governor's Art Award.
