Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Modern art museum in Cultural District, Fort Worth, United States
The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth displays post-World War II art pieces in a building with concrete walls and glass panels designed by Tadao Ando.
Founded in 1892, the museum underwent several transformations before moving to its current location in 2002, making it the oldest art institution in Texas.
The permanent collection features works by major artists including Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauschenberg, and Andy Warhol through paintings, sculptures, and photographs.
The museum offers free admission, guided tours, educational programs, and houses Café Modern, managed by Wolfgang Puck Catering for lunch, brunch, and dinner.
Five rectangular pavilions appear to float on water pools, creating reflections that change with natural light conditions throughout the day.
