Bates Lowry was born in 1923 in Cincinnati. He received his Bachelor of Philosophy, Master of Arts, and PhD from the University
of Chicago. Amidst his studies, he served in the United States Army from 1942 to 1945. Following his service, he studied in
France at the Université Grenoble and La Sorbonne. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, he taught art history at the University
of Chicago, the University of California at Riverside, the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, Pomona College,
the University of Massachusetts, and the University of Delaware. In 1963, he joined the faculty of Brown University and, in
1966, became Chairman of its Department of Art.
He also held the following positions: editor of the Art Bulletin and the College Art Association Monograph Series; founder of The Committee to Rescue Italian Art (CRIA) and Chairman of its
Executive Committee; trustee of the American Federation of Arts; member of the Board of Directors of the Center for Inter-American
Relations in New York; and member of the Advisory Board of the Studio Museum in Harlem. And, he served on the Boards of Directors
of the College Art Association and Society of Architectural Historians. Lastly, he published several books on wide ranging
topics in art history—such as Renaissance architecture and 19th century daguerreotypes—often in collaboration with his wife,
Isabel Barrett Lowry.
In January 1968, Lowry joined The Museum of Modern Art as the Director of the Department of Painting and Sculpture following
Alfred H. Barr, Jr.'s retirement. During this time, he worked under the direction of René d'Harnoncourt, in preparation for
d'Harnoncourt's retirement. In July 1968, he succeeded d'Harnoncourt as the third Director of the Museum. Following Lowry's
untimely departure in May 1969, the "Operating Committee" (composed of Walter Bareiss, Chairman of the Committee on Painting
and Sculpture; Wilder Green, Director of Exhibitions; and Richard Koch, Director of Administration) undertook the temporary
administration of the Museum, led by Bareiss.
After leaving MoMA, Lowry was appointed Chairman of the Art Department at the University of Massachusetts. With his wife,
Lowry created the Dunlap Society to produce and distribute visual documentation of American art and architecture for educational
purposes. In 1980, Lowry became the founding director of the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., where he remained
until his retirement in 1987. He died in Brooklyn in 2004, though he was a resident of Boston at the time.
The Papers concern many aspects of the Museum's operation–both administrative and curatorial–and external affairs. Correspondence and other files are largely dated between the years 1965 and 1970. Some papers are dated outside of Lowry's short tenure (from January 1968 to May 1969) and belonged variably to René d'Harnoncourt, Bates Lowry, Wilder Green, Walter Bareiss, or Richard Koch; it appears as though some folders were kept in place from one administration to the next, possibly maintained by one assistant. Among the subjects documented in the files are symposia, Jazz in the Garden concerts, the Children's Art Caravan, the Children's Art Carnival, proposed and realized exhibitions, acquisitions, and publications. There are also files related to outside organizations' activities and inquiries from members of the public.
The records are open for research and contain few restricted materials. Several committee meeting minutes were removed and re-filed in the collection Committee Minutes.

Rights to work produced during the normal course of Museum business resides with The Museum of Modern Art.

|
This series includes exhibition files and correspondence regarding museum matters and external affairs. Owing in part to Lowry's short tenure (from January 1968 to May 1969), correspondence found in these folders is addressed variably to René d'Harnoncourt, Bates Lowry, Wilder Green, Walter Bareiss, or Richard Koch; it appears as though some folders were kept in place from one administration to the next, possibly maintained by one assistant. This series was processed in 1992. |
