Opening with 232 paintings of primarily turn-of-the-century German Art, the Frye Art Museum has since flourished into a well-esteemed collection of nineteenth century painting and sculpture. The Founding Collection’s content of European Symbolism and exemplar German art has set the tone for the expanding exhibitions, which favor dramatic and dark content. Among its extensive permanent collection, there is work by artists Franz von Lenbach, William-Adolph Bougueraeu, and Eugene Boudin. The revolving exhibitions favor topics such as violence, the occult, and local artists. R. Crumb, Tim Rollins, and Albert von Keller have been some of the featured artists. Coupled with free parking and free admission, the Frye has established itself as a great, alternative destination for young travelers and families with teenagers.
