Harn Museum of Art, University art museum in Gainesville, United States.
The Harn Museum of Art is an art museum at the University of Florida with multiple exhibition spaces, gardens, and an auditorium spread across its campus. The facility accommodates rotating collections and special exhibitions spanning various art historical periods and regions.
The museum was made possible through a donation by the Harn family and opened in 1990 as a new art facility for the university. An expansion in 2012 added new exhibition spaces dedicated to the Asian art collection.
The museum displays art from Asia and Africa alongside modern works that visitors can encounter in its exhibition spaces. The collection rotates regularly, so each visit offers new perspectives on artistic traditions and contemporary practices.
The museum is easily accessible from the campus and offers visitors time for a relaxed tour through the various wings. Plan to spend two to three hours to explore the collections and gardens at a comfortable pace.
The museum grounds include a specially designed Asian garden that connects the indoor collections with a natural extension of the space. This quiet area demonstrates how the museum integrates with its surroundings.
