Mission  

The Milton Resnick and Pat Passlof Foundation is a nonprofit organization that promotes the legacies of the artists Milton Resnick (1917–2004) and Pat Passlof (1928–2011) and supports the work of other painters. The Foundation fulfills this mission by organizing exhibitions, publishing catalogs, and hosting related programming in Resnick’s former home and studio in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The building, once a synagogue, was renovated by Ryall Sheridan Architects and opened to the public in 2018. The soaring second floor, where Resnick worked from the 1970s to the 1990s, is maintained as a space for exhibitions and other programming. The small studio on the third floor, where Resnick worked in later years, has been preserved as he left it.
