Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Art museum in Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel

The Tel Aviv Museum of Art occupies three buildings: the main Paulson Family Foundation Building and the Herta and Paul Amir Building on Shaul Hamelech Boulevard, plus the Eyal Ofer Pavilion on Tarsat Street. Roy Lichtenstein made a two-panel mural in 1989 for the entrance foyer, and sculptures stand in the entrance plaza and an internal garden.

The museum opened on 2 April 1932 in Meir Dizengoff's former home at 16 Rothschild Boulevard, a house built in 1918 and adapted by city architect Dov Hershkovich in 1930–31. On 14 May 1948 the Israeli Declaration of Independence was signed in its main gallery. After the Helena Rubinstein Pavilion opened in 1959, the collection moved in 1971 to Shaul Hamelech Boulevard, where a wing was added in 1999.

The museum displays works by Israeli artists alongside rotating exhibitions of international masters. The galleries serve as gathering places where visitors engage with modern and contemporary art.

The main building and the Herta and Paul Amir Building stand on Shaul Hamelech Boulevard near the courts, the Beit Ariela library and the performing arts center. The Eyal Ofer Pavilion, formerly the Helena Rubinstein Pavilion, is a separate site on Tarsat Street beside the Habima Theatre. Check which building holds the exhibition you want before setting out.

The Herta and Paul Amir Building features an unusual architectural design with angled surfaces that direct natural light through the interior in distinctive ways. This thoughtful design creates an unexpected gallery experience where the building itself complements the artworks on display.
