IAMA Art Museum in San Francisco
ABOUT THE MUSEUM
The museum’s goal is to utilize the exhibition forum to display works of art that have achieved the most exquisite beauty and preciousness in the history of civilization. It takes as its mission bringing humanity happiness and uplifting aesthetic enjoyment. Via exhibiting world-class art, it aims to further the moral progress, spiritual well-being, and cultural development of humanity and advance world peace.
International Art Museum of America collects and exhibits outstanding works by famous artists. As an international public art museum, it is committed to assuring that the exhibited artworks meet discerning world-class standards of excellence. The Board of Directors has established their criteria for artwork selection as follows:
“Regardless of the medium—whether it be painting or calligraphy, ink-wash painting, oil painting, watercolor, gouache, or sculpture—the artwork must come from the hands of a world-class or national artist, and the value of artworks by any such living artist must be within the highest or second-highest tier of valuation. For an artist’s work to be considered by the museum, they must have artworks valued at or above US$200,000 per square foot. Otherwise, they must have had their work exhibited by the highest governmental body of their nation, be an eminent artist and the director of an art museum, or head of an art academy. Additionally, the works of artists who lived over one hundred years ago are exempt from the valuation minimum, but they must be exhibited at two or more art museums of worldwide renown, and such artists must have produced artwork of exceptional quality to be considered for exhibition at the International Art Museum of America. The museum is concerned only with the quality of the artwork itself, not with the number of artists whose works are selected for exhibition.”
European, American, and Asian artworks grace IAMA’s international collection. For example, the museum houses paintings from various countries from the 17th Century to the present day. Rosa Bonheur (France), Evariste Carpentier (Belgium), Sir Martin Archer Shee (Ireland), Karl Schultze (Germany), Archilles Theodor Cesbron (Algeria), Carlos Duran and Maurice de Vlaminck (France), George Romney (England), Frits Thaulow (Norway), Vladimir Semanski (Russia), and Charles Dorman Robinson (U.S.A).
The museum exhibits representative works from each artistic subject category and period of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is a renowned world-class art master. He was the first one to be conferred on him the Fellowship by the Royal Academy of Arts in its over 200 years of history. The selling prices of His paintings are among the highest of living artists. The auction price for His paintings was US$910,000 per square foot in 2010, and it reached $1.65 million per square foot in 2015. IAMA has 16 creative styles of paintings by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III that are unique, exquisite, and unprecedented.
Additionally, the museum displays artworks by Professor Yuhua Shouzhi Wang. A U.S. Congressional Record praises her lotus paintings as “unsurpassed” in “the history of Chinese art” and her painted sculptures of cobblestones and sculptures of coral formations as “treasures of the world.” These sculptures of corals and pebbles are created from wood and then painted to convey the essence of natural corals and stones while surpassing their beauty, the likes of which are genuinely found nowhere else. A dedicated exhibit room at IAMA shows many of Professor Wang’s Chinese ink-wash paintings, some of which were displayed at the Louvre in Paris in 2019. UNESCO awarded Professor Wang “International First-class Artist” in 2020.
關於博物館
美國國際藝術博物館 (IAMA) 位於舊金山市中心，是一個向公眾開放的永久性非營利性博物館。
它不是政府補貼的。
博物館的目標是利用展覽論壇展示文明史上最精美、最珍貴的藝術作品。以帶給人類幸福，提升審美享受為己任。通過展示世界一流的藝術，它旨在促進人類的道德進步、精神福祉和文化發展，促進世界和平。
美國國際藝術博物館收藏和展出著名藝術家的優秀作品。作為一個國際公共藝術博物館，它致力於確保展出的藝術品符合世界一流的卓越標準。董事會制定了以下藝術品選擇標準：
“無論是繪畫還是書法、水墨畫、油畫、水彩、水粉、雕塑，無論何種媒介，作品必須出自世界級或國家級藝術家之手，作品的價值在於任何這樣的在世藝術家都必須在最高或第二高的估值範圍內。博物館要考慮藝術家的作品，他們必須擁有每平方英尺價值 200,000 美元或以上的藝術品。否則，他們的作品一定是由本國最高政府機構展出的，是傑出的藝術家和藝術博物館的館長，或者是藝術學院的院長。此外，生活在一百多年前的藝術家的作品免於最低估價，但必須在兩個或多個世界知名藝術博物館展出，這些藝術家必須創作出品質卓越的藝術品，才能考慮在美國國際藝術博物館展出。博物館只關心藝術品本身的質量，而不關心作品入選展覽的藝術家數量。”
歐洲、美國和亞洲藝術品為 IAMA 的國際收藏增色不少。例如，博物館收藏了 17 世紀至今的各國畫作。Rosa Bonheur (法國), Evariste Carpentier (比利時), Sir Martin Archer Shee (愛爾蘭), Karl Schultze (德國), Archilles Theodor Cesbron (阿爾及利亞), Carlos Duran and Maurice de Vlaminck (法國), George Romney (英格蘭), Frits Thaulow（挪威）、Vladimir Semanski（俄羅斯）和 Charles Dorman Robinson（美國）。
博物館展出H.H.第三世多杰羌佛各藝術主題類別和時期的代表作品。H.H.第三世多杰羌佛是享譽世界的藝術大師。他是皇家藝術學院 200 多年曆史中第一個授予他獎學金的人。他的畫作的售價是在世藝術家中最高的。他的畫作在2010年的拍賣價格為每平方英尺91萬美元，2015年達到每平方英尺165萬美元。IAMA擁有16款HH多傑羌佛創作風格的畫作，獨特、精美、史無前例。
此外，博物館還展出了王玉華壽之教授的作品。美國國會記錄稱讚她的蓮花畫在“中國藝術史上”是“無與倫比的”，她的鵝卵石彩塑和珊瑚雕塑是“世界瑰寶”。這些珊瑚和鵝卵石的雕塑是用木頭製成的，然後塗上油漆，以傳達天然珊瑚和石頭的本質，同時超越它們的美麗，真正在其他地方找不到這樣的東西。IAMA的一個專門展廳展示了王教授的許多中國水墨畫，其中一些於2019年在巴黎盧浮宮展出。聯合國教科文組織於2020年授予王教授“國際一流藝術家”稱號。
