About

History
On October 2, 1985, the List Visual Arts Center officially opened in the I.M. Pei-designed Wiesner Building. Artists Scott Burton, Kenneth Noland, and Richard Fleischner collaborated with Pei to create a space dedicated to experimentation and interdisciplinarity—a defining spirit that continues today.
In celebration of the 40th anniversary, explore the milestones that have shaped the List Center’s history.
