Barbara Morgan Research & Exhibition Archive — Dr. Curtis Carter Collection

An extensive archive of Barbara Morgan research and exhibition material assembled and retained by Dr. Curtis Carter, founding director of the Haggerty Museum of Art at Marquette University.

Recently rediscovered among Carter’s office files, this collection documents his research, professional involvement, and long-standing interest in Morgan’s influential work, particularly her celebrated dance photography.

The archive includes:

• Exhibition catalogs and gallery announcements

• Copies of correspondence

• Photographs and photographic material

• Lecture and event materials

• Publications and research notes

• Newspaper and press clippings

• Archival documents accumulated over many years

• Digital media on CD

• A signed Barbara Morgan dance portfolio with written descriptions

Please note: the portfolio does not contain photographs.

Much of the material remains organized in the original folders and files as it was maintained in Dr. Carter’s office, providing valuable context and provenance to the collection.

This archive offers an unusual opportunity to acquire a substantial body of previously unavailable Barbara Morgan research and exhibition material with a direct association to a respected museum director, curator, scholar, and researcher.

The collection should be of particular interest to collectors, museums, archives, universities, researchers, and institutions studying Barbara Morgan, American photography, modern dance, and 20th-century art history.

Materials span many years and show age-related handling and storage wear consistent with a working scholarly archive.
