Fresno Art Museum

 

Fresno reminds me of San Diego in the 70’s.  Driving into town I noticed lots of new housing replacing the farms.  Traffic on the freeways looks like it’s getting bad during rush hour.

As we pulled into the museum parking lot I noticed some cool artworks outside.

Inside there are several rooms and each has a different exhibit.

I was excited to see The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai.

 

It was lovely and there were a few other prints by Hokusai.

In the room there were works by other artists from that period.

The other exhibit I loved was the John Willheim exhibit.

I liked how the exhibits were curated.  Out in the inner courtyard were more artworks.

The gift shop was nice but I wish they had t-shirts as that is my favorite souvenir when I go on trips.  I did get a Great Wave magnet.  Loved the exhibits at the Fresno Art Museum and look forward to visiting again.
