One of the best art museums in the country
Cincinnati Art Museum的点评
点评：One of the best art museums in the country, and a wonderful experience if you spend a little time there, all day, or even several days. The fact that admission and parking are free and there is a good-quality restaurant on-site is just icing on this many-layered art cake.
When we visited, the rotating exhibits that are in the first hall past the entrance included one of my favorite artists, Winslow Homer, so that was a great start. Ancient and Asian art is to the right past the picturesque courtyard; we went straight ahead through the long hallway (which had an amazing wall-high mural) and into the Great Hall, which goes up all three stories. The American Art showcases a variety of painting styles, along with some sculpture, and there is a focus on telling Cincinnati's story as the reginal center of American art back in the day.
The second floor is where you get a deep dive into Cincinnati's key role in the global potter art movement, especially the evolution of Rookwood Pottery and how it became an international phenomenon. Fascinating story and a lot of behind-the-scenes and personal information about the various characters involved in the movement. It is wild to think that a city in southern Ohio was the focus of something that became a global phenomenon.
If you have time, make the effort and go to the third floor where there are rotating contemporary art exhibits. That was apparently the original "studio classes" area of the museum, and the glass skylights make for some interesting plays of light and shadow on the various exhibits.
There's an excellent lunch to be had at the Terrace Cafe. They do recommend reservations, but we got there right when the opened and were seated promptly. The food is freshly prepared and reasonably priced.
The high point for us was the special exhibit by Yayoi Kusama and her endless view of polka-dotted pumpkins. We were able to buy tickets and go through at our designated time without delay (probably because it was the middle of the week). It was the kind of thing you see once and never, ever, forget.
All in all a great day and an excellent way to get immersed in all kinds of art.

翻译：这是国内最出色的艺术博物馆之一，无论只待一小会儿、一整天，还是好几天，都能带来美妙的体验。门票和停车均免费，馆内还有一家品质不错的餐厅，这些无疑为这场丰富的艺术盛宴锦上添花。
我们参观时，入口处第一个展厅正在举办轮换展览，其中展出了我最喜爱的艺术家之一——温斯洛·霍默的作品，这真是一个绝佳的开端。古代及亚洲艺术展区位于风景如画的庭院右侧；我们径直穿过设有巨型壁画的长走廊，便进入了直通三层楼高的中央大厅。美国艺术展区则展出了多种绘画风格的作品以及一些雕塑，重点在于讲述辛辛那提作为昔日美国艺术区域中心的辉煌历史。二层则深入讲述了辛辛那提在全球陶艺运动中所发挥的关键作用，尤其是Rookwood陶器的发展历程及其如何成为一种国际性现象。这是一个非常引人入胜的故事，其中还包含了许多与这场运动相关人物的幕后故事与个人经历。想想看，俄亥俄州南部的一座城市竟能成为引发全球性现象的中心，真是令人难以置信。
如果您有时间的话……费点力气去三楼吧，那里有轮流展出的当代艺术作品。那里显然是博物馆最初设立“工作室课程”的区域，玻璃天窗让各种展品上呈现出有趣的光影效果。
在Terrace Cafe可以享受到美味的午餐。虽然他们建议提前预订，但我们刚好在餐厅开门时到达，很快便有了座位。食物都是新鲜制作的，价格也相当合理。对我们来说，最精彩的部分就是草间弥生的特别展览，以及那些布满圆点的南瓜所构成的无穷景象。我们顺利买到了门票，并在指定的时间顺利入场（大概是因为那天是周中吧）。那种景象真是让人看过一次就终生难忘。
总的来说，这是非常美好的一天，也是沉浸于各类艺术世界的绝佳方式。
