Reviews
"Saw the Japanese art exhibit here which was fun. Meandered around the rest of the museum. I’m not a fan of European art from the Middle Ages, just oils of the aristocracy. The Latin American art here is truly dark. So much so that we skipped most of it. Some of it was downright repulsive!"
"We came to visit the museum for the first time on a rainy Saturday! There weren't many people there at opening. Their website says that entrance is free for military members because they are a blue star museum, but we were still charged even after showing our military ID's (though at a discounted rate). I would suggest making the website a little more clear on this and what the prices are! We happened to come on a members-only preview weekend, so we weren't allowed to enter the first 2 exhibit rooms on the main floor. The art upstairs was fun to look at and my kids said they enjoyed it more than they thought they would! That's a win!"
"I am an Austinite and this is the first time I have visited the Blanton. It was nice. Right now they have a central and South American exhibition of some phenomenal pieces. I think it is amazing that some young scientist dug this up somewhere, cleaned it up, cataloged it and got it ready for display. I like to think of the excitement of this scientist. This is also the first time I saw flint shaped I to something other than an arrowhead. Who knew you could make a flint scorpion. Overall I enjoyed the museum. I still don’t get modern art though. Many great paintings to see and one instillation that will make you rethink or think about colonialism."
"Made a last minute decision to go here today and ended up with a free ticket - I guess Tuesdays are free days. It was a great experience! Very relaxing and meditative, and we had a wonderful time checking out all of the artwork. I think my favorite exhibit was the Latin American Contemporary Art. Highly recommend!"
