This was the first time that we visited the Elmhurst Art Museum.  Our daughter was invited to…read morepreview the exhibition "Picasso: Fifty Years Later" before it opened to the public, Hubby and I were her guests.  The exhibition focuses more on the influence of Picasso fifty years after his death.  So, other than some nice prints from Picasso, there was artwork from his colleagues and contemporary artists as well.  Interestingly, some of the work from other artists might appear to be even more "Picassoesque" than Picasso's work in this exhibit.  All in all, it was a good show and professionally done.   We met the Executive Director John McKinnon as soon as we entered the museum, who was very friendly and professional, and enthusiastically gave us a brief introduction of the exhibition.  John was also the co-curator of the show.  Katie, the publicist of the museum, was also very friendly and welcoming.  She talked about how proud the artists must have been to be able to have artwork exhibited alongside Picasso's art, and that the Director John even improved the air system in order to meet the requirements of the lenders of the Picasso collection!  I like that both John and Katie are very passionate, enthusiastic, and professional about what they do!   The museum itself is rather small.  It's very clean with professional setup.  It would have been nice if the rest of the museum was opened to explore when we visited on the preview day.  However, nothing was opened except for the Picasso exhibit, even the small gift shop was closed.  There is a sculpture named Skycube in the museum courtyard that is worth visiting.  It is a great spot to take interesting selfie.  All in all, Elmhurst Art Museum provides a good opportunity for art museum-goers in the suburbs to visit without driving all the way to the city, and you don't need to worry about parking, as it provides ample free parking as well!

What I like most about Guenther Gallery And Design: This is a family owned business. The family treats all customers with kindness and professionalism until the end of your transaction. Specifically what I will be going back for is: personalized treatment, educated opinions about a frame, matte, glass, print quality and even answers to shipment internationally. They also do not try and up-sell the customer. I recently sold one of my prints to a museum for their permanent collection. I believe Guenther Gallery And Design was a large part of the transaction because my print quality, matte and frame were perfectly finished. Thank you Guenther Gallery!

You could not even do it yourself for that amount of money. Get a grip people. So the artist of our piece has her work framed here for her shows, so if it works for her, we will give it a try. Angela and Frank, the owners, worked patiently with us suggesting different frames. Our piece happened to be 63 inches tall ~ a little on the tall side. They suggested a frame from Italy ~ it was beautiful with the artwork. Even the artist came in and thought it would be beautiful. SOLD It really did not take any longer than other art pieces we have had framed ~ this is not an instant gratification process. When it was completed we were totally pleased. I would certainly recommend this service.
