Stunning exhibit of Niki de Saint Falle. Inuit artwork was uniquely displayed, the spatial feeling of this museum soothes.

Beautiful building with rotating exhibitions. Pro tip: it’s half price after 5pm on Wednesdays (open until 9pm). The building and the courtyard are worth the trip alone.

This is one of the most incredible museums I’ve ever visited. The Niki de Saint Phalle exhibit was purely breathtaking and one of the best exhibits I’ve ever seen. The upper floors have plenty to offer as well, but that first floor exhibit was something else.

Wonderful venue filled with interesting art. The collection isn't huge, but there's a lot of variety and interesting pieces. The best bathrooms are in the basement. 🙂 Take the elevator to the third floor and come down from there. The elevator is a treat in itself. It's the biggest elevator car I've ever seen. The doors are epic! Lol

I decided to visit the Art Museum during my stay in Quebec. I genuinely thought it would be a similar experience to visiting museums in Florence and Rome, Italy. However, I was thoroughly disappointed by what they now call “art.” Here, you be the judge. I’ll post pictures so you can form your own opinion, but as for me, I strongly advise against it. Save your money and time.
