Chazen Museum of Art
The Chazen Museum of Art makes its home between two lakes on the beautiful campus of the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Within walking distance of the state capitol, it sits squarely in the heart of a vibrant college town.
This fall, when the Chazen Museum of Art’s doors reopen, visitors won't simply return to a familiar museum—they'll step into a new way of seeing. The Chazen has reimagined and reinstalled its collection galleries, whose works span ancient Greece, Western Europe and the Soviet Empire to Moghul India, 18th-century Japan and modern Africa. Each organized around a core work of art, galleries will bring new focus and connection across eras and cultures via shared ideas, themes, mediums, and methods.
