From Picasso's "Guernica" in 1940 to Mapplethorpe's photos in 1990, the Contemporary Arts Center has consistantly challenged the artisitic community. Experiential installations using lights, sounds, and even high-speed winds are designed to stimulate--if not assault--the senses. The building itself is a work of art all its own. With the "urban carpet" and glass-enclosed lobby, boundaries are...

Founded in 1939 as the Modern Art Society, the Contemporary Arts Center (CAC) was one of the first institutions in the U.S. dedicated to contemporary art. The CAC is a non-collecting institution that focuses on new developments in painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, performance art and new media. We remain committed to programming that reflects "the art of the last five minutes,"...

Right downtown by K W. at InsiderPages
brought to you by

This art museum is in downtown Cincinnati, which can pose a problem when looking for parking. If you want to see well-known artists you go to the Cincinnati Art Museum. When you want to see obscure and very gifted artists work, you go to the Contemporary Arts Center. They have fabulous rotation art exhibits. The building is beautiful. Staff is very nice and helpful.
Modern Art and Modern Architecture by T A. at InsiderPages

The Contemporary Arts Center (CAC) in downtown Cincinnati provides a wide variety of art exhibits. The majority of their holdings are modern art (hence the contemporary) and are well displayed to tell a story or assist in providing a background of the artists' motives. The building itself is very modern, with very cool architectural features. Admission is very reasonable. On the top floor...

A gem in everyday downtown Cincinnati
brought to you by
tripadvisor
Fabulous building. Really eclectic very-modern collection (if a little jumbled and over-filled). Do make the effort to get to the top floor to see the 'Un-Museum' and what a living art museum really should be like - hands on, fun, innovative, accessible. It's fabulous. Highly recommended. Don't be put off by the no photos/all bags in lockers rules at the...
