The Norton Museum of Art is Florida’s biggest art museum and is one of the state’s most important cultural institutions. Since its founding in 1941, the museum has developed an internationally acclaimed collection of American, Chinese and European Art. The museum’s collection includes a stellar list of modern and contemporary pieces and a diverse photography collection.
Explore the many galleries of this late art deco-neoclassical architectural beauty and enjoy over 7,000 artworks. See exclusive works from the Renaissance era and impressionist and modernist movements, including works by Monet, Gauguin, Braque, Chagall, Matisse and Picasso. There are also works by American modern masters, such as Jackson Pollock, Frank Stella, Dan Flavin and Sol LeWitt.
