Huntsville Museum of Art

Huntsville AL

Huge disappointment here. It is a small museum to begin with, but they have two galleries of 19th-20th century American art, which was main primary goal, and both were closed. So there were very few other highlights.

A Beautiful Despair, Anila Quayyum Agha
All of the designs on the floor, walls and ceiling are created by this lighted sculpture.
Royale, Dorothy Gillespie 1984
Turkey, Gianmaria Buccellati 1997
Composed of 925 sterling silver and carnelian semi-precious stone
Red Amber Persian Pair, Dale Chihuly 2010
Soft Elegance, Savannah Getter, 11th grader
The museum had a special exhibit by children. This one was really special.
Edge of Town, Thomas Hart Benton 1938
The White Calf, Thomas Hart Benton 1945
The Pipe Rack (The Artist’s Pipe Rack), William Harnett 1877
Lunch Break, Dale Kennington 1996
Kind of reminds me of the Edward Hopper technique (i.e. Nighthawks, 1942)
Gracelyn Rose, Josh Brook Cote, 2021
