Review:
The Hammer Museum was founded in 1990 by the industrialist Armand Hammer to house his extensive art collection and share it with the public. Since then, the museum has expanded and has grown into one of "the hippest and most culturally relevant institutions in town." The Armand Hammer Collection contains works of art from the 16th to the 20th centuries and includes works by masters such as Paul Cezanne, Paul Gauguin, Edgar Degas, Edouard Manet, Claude Monet, and Gustave Moreau. The museum frequently holds exhibitions of overlooked and emerging artists. The museum also conducts more than 300 programs every year, including lectures, concerts, symposia, readings, and film screenings. Entrance to the museum's collections, programs, and exhibitions is free of charge. The museum is affiliated with the University of California, Los Angeles.
