I was given a copy of American Art: The World's Greatest Art by Mike O'Mahoney in 2008. Once a year, I flip through this book and marvel at the works of great artists, While I walk through the galleries, I look for artists' works that I have read about.
Untitled, Painted in 1960
by Mark Rothko
The Death Chamber
Sterbezimmer
by Edvard Munch.
When I entered the gallery,
saw the vibrant colors &
informal composition, I
knew I was looking at a
work by Henri Matisse.
From across the room, Eric
pointed out this Picasso...
Woman in a Black Hat
It's not all about oversize
I am introduced to the works of many other artists. These are my favorites:
This Mixed Media Sculpture
honors the German sculptor,
Harold E. Edgerton's work
Three Photos from Ten Dye
Transfer Photographs:
Cutting the Card Quickly!
.30 Bullet Piercing an Apple
Bullet Through Banana
The Party by Marisol Escobar,
is a study of feeling alone
in a crowded room.
Villas for Marionettes
by Paul Klee
Eric spends time exploring interactive art.

We like the interactive installations here at the Toledo Museum of Art. There are also areas for children to interact with art.
Climb in the netting or
swing on one of the
suspended balls in this
large room.
There's so much more to see at the Toledo Museum of Art. If you're in the area, plan a entire day to visit the amazing collections here.
