el paso museum of art

I went there for the first time in 12-14 after church. Nice to see the sculptures and art. met the curator there also.

The permanent exhibits were a bit disjointed and they don't display a lot of information about their artists or the individual works of art. My trip was not well timed as they were changing one of the major exhibit spaces over.The gift shop was quite good and the lady running it is very knowledgeable, prices were reasonable.

Stopped in there today. The museum is small but has some very nice artwork and both my friend and I were impressed with the design and presentation of the art itself. The colored galleries were very well done! Worth a visit.

The museum is free and well worth a visit. The special exhibits have a charge but are free with a military ID. It took less than 2 hours to go through the whole museum. Great if you like southwest style art. I also leared that they have art classes for both children and adults on Saturdays which I will be checking out.

Not sure why every city seems to spend lots of cash on Art Galleries when the challenge is to actually obtain enough quality artifacts to justify the outlay. This is another build it and they will come facility and I will admit it has more than that of our hometown to recommend it . Overall not much to see regardless.

OK, this is a small museum, and the entrance is unimpressive. However, there are astounding pieces of art which were donated by the Kress Foundation on the second floor. This is a hidden gem. Also, it's free!

Some nice realistic sculptures and classic oil paintings as well as locally recognized artists with international reputations.

It's a small museum which can be toured in less than one hour. I wasn't expecting much so I wasn't disappointed. Some impressionist paintings, a Picasso, a Cezanne, and a pay per view Remington exhibit when we were there. They also have a Gilbert Stuart painting of George Washington which I always find interesting. It's worth a visit but not outstanding.

The art gallery offered a major collection of the masters right here in El Paso. To think that one would not have to travel to Europe or to a big city in the US to experience these art is just fantastic!

Went to the el paso museum on a sunday after church. Was greeted by the curator. It was real interesting looking at the sculptures and pictures and talking about your thoughts on each one.

Pleasantly surprised by this lovely museum. Great exhibits, wonderful collection of art. A must for downtown and it's FREE!

Went there in July 2014It was free which was good, yet it was too small in my viewWe really liked some of the displays, they had posters of western films from the 60's which was really cool and also some Beatles memorabilia.They also had a few really cool sculptures.We stayed for about 10-15 minutes before we have seen everything on display. It was really nice and I would recommend it.

My family and I have been wanting to visit the museums downtown for a little while now and finally decided to do so on a Friday morning while my father was visiting. It will take the average family about 30 - 60 minutes to get through the whole art museum. They have small collections and two of the galleries were closed when we visited. The Renaissance gallery had the best pieces. I would have rated the museum poor if we had to pay for admission, but it was average considering it was free. You can do this museum and the history museum a few blocks away in one morning. They are museums you go to once and will probably never go back to.

I was very impressed by the collection of art at the El Paso Museum of Art. The variety was much more expansive than I expected. There is a lot to see, take your time and enjoy the creativity your eyes will see.

The El Paso museum of art is an excellent mid-sized museum. The collection includes many wonderful works by some of Americas best south-western Artists including Tom Lea.( If you are not familiar with his work -this is a good place to enjoy it !) There are also some very good European paintings and works by other American artists. . On Saturday afternoons they show a free movie at 2:00 -Call ahead for the movie title and exact times and dates. There are also temporary exhibits for a fee. (Otherwise admission is free. ) Well worth and hour or two of your time.
