We bought our tickets online for last Tuesday from 12:30 -2:30 and it indeed took over 2 hours to see this wonderful exhibit. There was no crowd except for two large women who seemed to be able to block out a couple of paintings each time they moved. They would stand in front of a painting and discuss in very loud voices what the artist was trying to achieve, it was almost comical. Finally someone asked them to move back from the painting and talk in lower tones since many of us were trying to use the pre recorded listening devices provided by the museum.
I highly recommend seeing this however please keep small children at home, they won't enjoy it.

We saw these works of art on a family visit to Cleveland. This happens once in a lifetime for art lovers in Utah. Don't miss this exhibition.

Art is my Game

This show is amazing. I get to travel to DC once a year. And this show is equal to anything that is on tour at the National Gallery of Art. The UMFA has done an amazing job of putting half of there normal permenent collection in storage so they can free up the gallery space to accomodate this show.

We never get to see art like this in Utah. Go see it is worth every penny.

Seven count them seven Picasso's in one room! A few of these are right out of my art history text book. It is so amazing to see them in person.
