The Minneapolis Institute of Arts

Founded in 1883 by twenty-five citizens of Minneapolis, the museum's purpose was to bring outstanding works of art from diverse cultures into the city’s community. The museum’s mission can be seen through all of its exhibitions. The Asian collection includes pieces from 27 different Asian cultures and spans over 5,000 years. The Arts of Africa and the Americas collection contains works by native peoples all around the world ranging from a rare Luba mask to three thousand year old Olmec artifacts.  

A highlight of the museum is its decorative arts and textiles collection which contains over 10,000 works from the middle ages to the present. The prints and drawings collection is internationally recognized for its exceptional quality and quantity at a total of over 42,000 works. A highlight in this collection is a rare presentation copy of Francisco de Goya's Los Caprichos as well as works by old masters Albrecht Dürer and Rembrandt van Rijn.

Kimbell Art Museum

The Kimbell had its beginnings over 40 years before the doors opened in October of 1972. The acquisitions and passion of Kay Kimbell and his wife, Velma Fuller, resulted in the directive to “build a museum of the first class.”  Though the collection is quite small, with less than 350 works, it reflects Kimbell’s desire for quality pieces. The Kimbell’s holdings span from antiquity to the 20th century, including European masterpieces from Fra Angelico and Caravaggio to Cézanne and Matisse, and important collections of Egyptian, Near Eastern, Greek, and Roman antiquities, as well as Asian, Mesoamerican, and African arts. The collection contains the first of Michangelo’s paintings, The Torment of St. Anthony (right); along with distinguished works by Piet Mondrian, James Ensor, Pablo Picasso, Paul Gauguin, and J.M.W. Turner.
