Munson
Two Settings for Art
Discover
Munson in Utica combines an art museum with a wider commitment to arts education and performance. Its museum occupies both a Philip Johnson-designed gallery building and Fountain Elms, a Victorian-era Italianate mansion. The contrasting settings offer a way to consider how architecture changes the experience of looking at art, from purpose-built galleries to rooms shaped by domestic life.
