Main Gallery
November 22, 2008 - March 15, 2009
Picasso Matisse Chagall
These are three of the most significant artists of the 20th century. Through their distinctive style and artistic innovations, each one influenced the way we think of art today. Although the artists may best be known as painters, each one worked extensively as a printmaker, employing a variety of methods, and exploring the same imagery and subject matter that they addressed in their paintings.
Illinois Folk Art Gallery
One of the greatest strengths of Lakeview Museum's collection is its midwestern folk art collection. This collection comprises more than 600 works of art spanning three centuries of Midwestern creative expression.
Planetarium Shows
