Smart Museum of Art
Smart Museum of Art Review
If you want to see art masterpieces but don't want to spend a long day wandering one of the major art museums, the Smart may be just your speed. The diverse, 10,000-piece permanent collection includes works by old masters; photographs by Walker Evans; furniture by Frank Lloyd Wright; and sculptures by Degas, Matisse, Rodin, and Henry Moore. Temporary exhibits are a great way to see startlingly good art in a smaller, intimate space.
