The Stenman Art Trust leads as a catalyst for global cultural advancement. The officers of the Trust continue to engage donor segments by providing direction and oversight to philanthropic gifts of important art to institutions on behalf of family offices and private clients. The Stenman Trust confers with fine art scholars, museum curators, and other expert appraisers in the field. On behalf of the collectors of M.L. Snowden’s Geological Coreium, the Trust has interfaced with noted foundations and institutions. These contacts include the International Rodin Competition on the award of the Rodin Prize to M.L. Snowden and the related purchase delivery of Cataclasis Study to the Hakone Open-Air Museum in Japan. Notably, the offices of the Stenman Trust interfaced with the delivery of Cataclasis Study to the permanent collection of the White House under President George W. Bush, arranged through the offices of Congressman Dana Rohrabacher. The Stenman Trust assisted the delivery of the Angel of Los Angeles to the HRM Queen Elizabeth II Collection at Buckingham Palace and fielded royal correspondence in receipt of the work for archival preservation. More recently, our offices arranged the C. Dimick ML Snowden Collection at Soka University of America. Our latest M.L. Snowden philanthropic placements stand in the lobby of the multi-million dollar Hannon Library at Loyola Marymount University and in the forecourt of the Butler Institute of American Art. Curators and appraisers agree with fine arts expert and scholar, Dr. David Bershad’s assessment that “M.L. Snowden’s Geological Coreium is the most extensive and foremost bronze collection of the latter half of the 20th century and in the first decades of the new Millennium." On a rotating basis, this website posts recent articles on particular artists whose work constitutes multi-million dollar institutional placements successfully arranged by the Stenman Art Trust.
