Offering a comprehensive look at some of the greatest examples of the art of our time, the Museum's collection includes painting and sculpture, drawings, prints and illustrated books, architecture and design, photography, and film

A full calendar of permanent and changing exhibitions is offered for the enjoyment of individuals, families, and groups throughout the year.

A few representative exhibitions include: John Heartfield Photomontages, from the 1930's by one of the medium's inventors; Latin American Artists of the 20th Century, the most extensive overview of modern Latin American art ever assembled; Projects: Ready-made Identities, a thematic exhibition on clothing and identity, presenting works by six artists.
