Carnegie Museum of Art

A smorgasbord of art. A little modern, impressionistic, classical. I liked the modern furniture and appliances display. Visited a copy of Venus di Milo and Winged Victory of Samothrace. Helpful staff. Good selection in gift shop. You can also see the Museum of Natural History with your ticket. My Cincinnati Art Museum membership got me in free.

Art collection wasn't super inspiring to me. Building is stunning. Ticket price a little high if you're only planning on visiting the art side, but a good deal if you want to do the art+natural history double visit in the same day

A mixed bag. Parts of the Carnegie Museum of Art are truly transcendent. The Hall of Architecture is a metaphysical experience — towering replicas of Renaissance masterpieces, true beauty and spiritual order. The Grand Staircase is breathtaking, with a mural of angels. Unfortunately, the rest of the museum goes in the opposite direction, drowning you in nihilism. There are many modern, woke, joyless, or grotesque pieces. The Heinz Galleries in particular felt like a full-on assault on my spirit - my fiancé and I could barely make it through. I was particularly infuriated and offended by the removal of a historic Greek statue in the Hall of Sculptures, now swapped for twisted, malformed figure with blackened hands and a curved spine staring at a cell phone. Whoever made the decision to replace the original piece should lose their job - an absolute disgrace to the beauty of the hall, intended as a sanctuary of classical beauty and ideal form, now degraded by the intrusion of a grotesque figure mocking everything the space was meant to honor. I am torn: half the museum is uplifting and enriching, half of it is demoralizing and draining. Overall, I'm not confident that the leadership at the Carnegie Museum of Art is committed to distinguishing between that which is beautiful and that which panders to modern nihilism. Art should elevate the soul, it should be transcendent and timeless - it should never bend the knee to the ugly, chaotic, soulless, and nihilistic.

Brought the kids here during spring break. Everyone had a great time and learned alot. All the art was amazing and so much to see. We made sure to attend the guided art tour/discussion which the wife and myself really enjoyed. The kids not so much. So many different styles and types to see, we could of spent another day here looking at everything. If we lived in the area we would definitely come back and visit more often. If you got kids bring them.

Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Carnegie Museum of Art and the Cathedral of Learning are 3 of most Iconic landmark of Pittsburgh, sitting next to the other 2 icons: CMU and UPitt. The Museum of Art covers all the type, genre and age of Art. Spare at least half a day or more, if you are an Art buff. The Modern Art section is the best amongst all Art Museums. The Staircase well at the center and the Gallery of Sculptures are beautiful.

I simply loved it! Spent 5 hours exploring it. The outskirts of the museum is beautiful. Pittsburgh University was right across from it. BEAUTIFUL!!

Great classical museum with natural sciences section. The Hall of Birds is fantastic and my favorite. An easy 2.5hr visit with two gift shops.

A wonderful collection of art in many different mediums ranging from classic to modern. With changing exhibitions you can always find something new and interesting or visit the more permanent works to revisit your favorites. Dined at the restaurant in the museum as well and had a great meal and mixed drink.
