World Erotic Art Museum Miami

The World Erotic Art Museum Miami is an art museum in South Beach housing over 4,000 works across various mediums including sculptures, drawings, paintings, photographs, and historical objects. The collection spans multiple continents and documents human expression through art history.

Collector Naomi Wilzig founded the museum in 2005, transforming her private collection into the first public institution of its kind in the United States. This marked a shift in how erotic art was recognized as a serious artistic subject.

The collection presents artworks from different cultures and time periods, showing how various societies have expressed sexuality and the human body through art. Works from multiple continents reveal different approaches to a universal human subject across civilizations.

The museum offers regular guided tours that explain the artistic and historical context of its exhibitions. Visitors should allow time to view the works thoughtfully and take advantage of the information provided for each collection section.

The collection includes rare objects such as ancient Chinese porcelain plates, Japanese ivory carvings, and pre-Columbian figurines, showing how different cultures artistically portrayed intimate themes. These pieces come from eras long before such works were publicly displayed in Western museums.
