Review:
The Birmingham Museum of Art showcases one of the finest art collections in the American Southeast, highlighting over 24,000 works of art across a variety of media created by artists around the world. The museum, which was founded in 1951, is home to a lovely collection of paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures, and decorative art pieces representing the cultures of Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas, including pre-Columbian and indigenous North American cultures. Its Asian art and Vietnamese ceramics collections are considered to be among the finest in the United States. Special collections include an Art of Alabama exhibit, a folk art exhibit, and an outdoor sculpture garden. The museum is free and open to the public throughout the week, though some special rotating exhibits may require a ticketed upcharge.
