Gorgeous architecture and amazing exhibition space. The current exhibitions- Sarah Crowner "Around Orange" contemporary art is a thoughtful homage to the space and past artists who have contributed... The STL Salvage & Building artifacts is an educational glimpse into the city's past- from grandeur to crumbling buildings... Preserving the glitzy designs from the old days of exceptionally skilled craftspersons.I appreciate that the foundation works with deaf and hard of hearing community to begin hosting American Sign Language guided tours- exciting times!A must see!

First off, the building itself is amazing. It's free too. Loved the exhibits there right now. Really liked the outside parts also. The Serra sculpture was so cool. The reflecting pond was neat. The outside was so serene and i felt like i was on another planet. The staff were very nice and helpful. It was our first time here and we will definitely be back.

Four stars because I wasn't asked to remove my backpack but certain other folks in comments were. That's not cool.Small gallery. Enjoyed the Confluence piece and the medieval art. There was a tour group in the furthest room downstairs and we went upstairs to wait for them to leave, but they must have snuck out a side entrance because they were outside when we left! ?I appreciate the gender-neutral and accessible restrooms, but might suggest "menstrual hygiene products" or just "hygiene products" instead of "feminine hygiene." And please make one policy across the board for backpacks. Thank you.

Small but ver interesting musuem! They have a great layout and explanations about their pieces and the artists. Only took some stars because they forced me to take my backpack off which was fine but then I noticed I was the only one they asked as there were various other people with them so they obviousky picked me out for some "reason"

Came to the Pulitzer Arts Foundation specifically to see the exhibition by Barbara chase Riboud and was not disappointed. Lovely museum space. Not a lot of people around so had a good chance to spend time with the artwork without distractions. The staff was uniformly helpful.I actually own a piece by Barbara Chase Riboud and I brought it with me to the museum to show the staff. It is an etching that Chase Riboud did while she was still a student at Temple University’s Tyler School of Art in Philadlphia. It is undated but I would guess it was done in 1958 of 1959 while she was still a student. (Chase Riboud earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Tyler in 1959.)After college, Chase moved to Paris, France, where she established a studio and married photographer Marc Riboud on December 21, 1961. The etching is signed "Barbara Chase" demonstrating the she was unmarried at the time she signed it.Unfortunately I came on a Saturday and none of the curators was available to discuss the etching. Maybe next time I am in St. Louis I willcall ahead.

Pulitzer arts foundation is one of my top 5 museums in the states. This museum reminds me of Dia:Beacon. The architecture is simple and modern. Love the art selection there. It’s a free museum but the quality is amazing. Their artists introduction card printing is super high quality and you can take it home if you want. Also, not sure if this is always a thing but you can also write a postcard there and they will send it to the address you put for free as well.They are holding their first “interactive” exhibit there and it was very fun! A lot of arts you can play around and it’s very inspiring!

One of my favorite museums in the city, hands down. Exhibits are always interesting, plus being connected to the Contemporary Art Museum is a nice way to see both in one trip

A crown jewel of STL midtown Grand Art Center. The building itself is a exceptional craftsmanship by Japanese architect Tadao Ando with unpolished exterior and interior walls, natural light coming from the roof and a serene bamboo garden and the peaceful water court. The Blue-Black art by Elssworth Kelly is the center point of the expansive main floor. The mammoth spiral weathered steel work by Richard Serra is one of a kind! With regular changing exhibits, public lectures and other events this place can always be something to look forward to visit again and again! The view of some of the surrounding old buildings can be appreciated from the courtyard. Across the street from the main building is a small Park-like urban green space.

As I'm a recent transplant to St Louis, I had assumed this museum had to do with writing awards, that is, Pulitzer Prizes. Wrong This museum has an interesting, changing assortment of contemporary and historic art on display, rotating thru its marvelous beautiful modern building. For example, today they had an exhibition of works by Yoko Ono (yes, John Lennon's Yoko Ono), with works that were collected as part of her book Grapefruit. In a separate gallery, The Chess Hall of Fame was setting up some type of chess tournament. There were only about a half dozen galleries to be enjoyed, but it was interesting throughout and made for a very pleasant visit. Don't miss the Joe installation in the back courtyard, the calming reflective water pool, or the park-like installation across the street. Admission is free, and they have a small, free parking lot.

Stunning modernist work by Tadao Ando. The level of detail in the walls was truly impressive. The art on exhibit was ok, but I went to see the building. I was not disappointed. Entry and parking were both free and easy.
