Built from 1979-1981 by the firm of I.M. Pei, this is the fourth home of the Indiana University permanent art collection. It houses nearly 45,000 pieces with around 3-4% of the collection on display at any given time. While there are certainly masterworks always on display, some areas of the collections are changed every semester to every year. There are four galleries -- the first floor with Western art from early Christianity until now; the second floor with ancient and Asian art; the third floor with Mesoamerican, Pacific, and African art; the Hexagon with 2-3 special exhibits that change at least twice a year. The galleries are open Tuesdays through Saturdays 10am to 5pm and Sundays Noon to 5pm; the galleries are closed on Mondays for docent and staff training and work. The IUAM is always free and every Saturday afternoon you can take a guided tour. There are monthly special tours and weekly lectures that you can learn about on the IUAM website. The collection is not built from tax money but from donations and grants. Complaints about the security guards are unwarranted; they protect the collections and they protect you. If you are told to remove a bag or to step back, you are probably doing something wrong. This is NOT a children's hands-on museum, you can visit one of those up in Indy. Just please note that I am a docent for this museum but I am being as objective as possible in this review while trying to address some misinformation I've seen in a few other reviews.

I've only visited once, because at the time I was interested in the works of I.M. Pei and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, but it was definitely worthwhile.

Ryan Hawn

Truly a fantastic display of various cultures right here in Bloomington. Take the time to come in and see how privileged we are to have such a collection that would be the envy of any major metropolitan area, let alone college campus. This is a wonderful place to just come, unwind, and relax while looking at some breathtaking exhibits.

I've been coming to the IU Art Museum ever since I was very little. Their galleries are filled with beautiful, mysterious and inspiring pieces from across the world and throughout the past. It's a wonderful place where you will always find something new to see!

Great museum in a small college town.

Ricardo Martins

This is one of the most impressive places to visit at IU. They house a variety of pieces by very famous painters and artists, such as Vik Muniz, Picasso and Monet. On top of that there is no entrance fee and the gift shop is really neat.

Bradley Bibler

The staff is rude ! Art was lacklustre and overrated !

Good, free art museum right on campus. They have a variety of events here (including live music).

Jennifer Gray

Fascinating collection, beautifully curated; a seamlessly easy museum-going experience in a gorgeous I.M. Pei-designed building. I always look forward to a visit when in Bloomington. I'm sad it's closed for renovation, and look forward to its reopening.

ANTHONY BOUTOUGHIAN

The bathrooms are the most unsanitary place I've ever been and i was arrested because I'm gay and they didn't like gay people

Rosa Lynn

This would get five stars if the museum didn’t shut down for so long and the security wasn’t breathing down your neck. I’m not going to touch the art like a child, so relax.

Established in 1941 featuring approximately 45,000 art objects, the building was designed by I.M. Pei.

Ted Somerville

For a rather small city such as Bloomington, this museum is excellent. The art inside is as impressive as the I.M. Pei designed architecture of the building. I've been a handful of times and every time I return there's always something new and fascinating I didn't see the previous time, the last time being Vik Muniz's exhibit. They know how to bring the right artists through there.
