Educational institutions have historically been the cultural beacons of the American nation. Many of them have their own art collections carefully preserved in local museums. Across the United States, universities and institutes exchange pieces of art as loans, purchase new artwork for their collections, and organize themed exhibitions of emerging and established artists. This all requires professional and reliable art delivery services.
Fine Art Shippers is an NYC-based art logistics company ready to handle any art shipping project for all types of clients. Over the years of our operation, we have served many American universities and institutions, including Yale, Harvard, Stony Brook University, Rutgers, and the University at Albany, among others. This week, we have also delivered an important painting to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) located in Pasadena, CA.
About Caltech
Caltech is a private educational institution in California, internationally known for its genius graduates and extensive coverage in the media. Founded at the end of the 19th century as Throop University for vocational training, it acquired a strong development boost in the 1920s, under the leadership of George Ellery Hale, Arthur Amos Noyes, and Robert Andrews Millikan.
Caltech is a relatively small educational establishment, but it is globally famous for its immense scientific contributions. The institution’s strong focus on cutting-edge research in STEM fields attracts the world’s top talent to its courses, making it an incubator of Nobel Prize winners and scholarly breakthroughs.
With 80 Nobel Prize winners among its graduates, Caltech holds the first place in the global ranking. The names of Linus Pauling, Richard Feynman, and Kip Thorne, as well as world-famous Caltech graduates like Charles Townes, Ahmed Zewail, and Barbara McClintock, are on that list.
