The Institute was founded in 1932 by Lady Barber in memory of her husband Sir Henry Barber, a wealthy Birmingham solicitor and property developer, and was beqeathed to the University 'for the study and encouragement of art and music'. Housed in a Grade II listed building, designed by Robert Atkinson, it was officially opened by Queen Mary in 1939. Since that time it has acquired a collection of works of art of international significance, displayed in spacious and elegant galleries on the first floor of the Institute.
