  • The Doris and Donald Fisher Collection Fact Sheet
    The Doris and Donald Fisher Collection Fact Sheet Background Comprising more than 1,100 works by 185 artists, the Doris and Donald Fisher Collection is one of the greatest collections of postwar and contemporary art in the world. In 2009, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) forged a groundbreaking partnership with the Fisher Art Foundation to share this extraordinary collection with visitors from around the world for at least 100 years, presenting art from the Fishers' holdings alongside works from the SFMOMA collection in the expanded museum, creating countless opportunities to reinterpret these works. SFMOMA provides dedicated gallery space to exhibit a rotating selection of works by the best-known artists of our time from the Doris and Donald Fisher Collection. The museum is empowered to install, conserve, loan and otherwise treat the Fisher Collection as it would its own collection. Installation of the Doris and Donald Fisher Collection at SFMOMA is supported in part by the Henry Luce Foundation and an award from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Collection The Fishers started collecting art in the 1970s. Their first purchases included prints, which were hung on the walls of an office building for Gap, the fashion apparel company they founded in San Francisco in 1969. Soon, their passion grew and they began adding paintings, sculpture, drawings, photographs and works in other media. They established two galleries totaling 26,000 square feet at the Gap offices in San Francisco, which showcased their collection. Over the years, the Fishers amassed a museum-quality collection of works by postwar and contemporary American and European artists and collected in depth the work of artists they especially admired.

  • Interview with Doris and Donald Fisher Neal Benezra As an Opening
    Interview with Doris and Donald Fisher Neal Benezra As an opening question, I wondered whether there was anything in your families that predisposed you to art? Was art part of your lives growing up? Doris: No, my parents had several paintings but nothing by a well-known artist. And Don’s family was not into art, either. Basically, we became interested in it at the same time. My friend Peggy Walker was the one who started us on the “art road.” It was through her that we became interested in prints in 1973. We started collecting seriously—it’s hard to believe—in 1976. Don: Gap went public in 1976, and I thought that was all I needed for the rest of my life. It certainly was enough to start collecting, as prices then were substantially lower than they are today. I have always categorized myself as a visual person. I remember things visually more than in any other way. When I finished college, I worked in the mill and cabinet and construction business. We specialized in designing and building homes along with other speculative building projects. So we worked with architects and were exposed to their design ideas. Later, when we started the Gap, it was always important to me that our stores have interesting graphics and be well designed. I also classify myself as an entrepreneur—which is probably an understatement. I’m always thinking of ways you can make money out of an idea. That really has nothing to do with our buying art, however. We started out with prints, which is a great way to begin learning about an artist’s work and to start collecting.

The Gap, founded by Doris and Don Fisher, filled a hole in the market. It was modern. It was clean. And it was revolutionary. Over the 40 years since then, we’ve grown to include five brands with more than 3,100 stores around the world. We’ve experienced both breakthrough successes and challenging times, such as today’s uncertain economic environment. The 134,000 people who make up Gap Inc. are inspired by our past and passionate about winning. We were determined to make this past year a turning point. Few companies matched our 2008 financial accomplishments as our earnings improved by 16 percent year-over-year. And as a result of our financial discipline, we reduced operating expenses by about $500 million and ended the year virtually debt-free with nearly $2 billion in cash. But beyond these results, our company stands for creativity and ingenuity. In the pages of this report, we celebrate this four- decade legacy. Our focus going forward is to make more progress, especially in delivering innovative products, so that we continue to get back to where we belong in the hearts and minds of our customers. As we know, it all started with the Gap. Gap Clean. Classic. American design. These words described Gap four decades ago and still hold true today. At our best, we inspire customers with individual style and make classics relevant for today through our use of bold color, emotional details and great fits.
