Bechtler Museum of Modern Art

The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art is dedicated to the exhibition of mid-century modernism. The collection juxtaposes whimsy with work of significant intellectual depth and historical significance. Cosmopolitan in nature yet intimate in scale, the Bechtler offers a collection that is inspiring and approachable. Owing to its size and focus, the Bechtler will provide an in-depth arts experience that can be explored in an afternoon but still reward repeated visits. The artworks were committed to the city of Charlotte by Andreas Bechtler who, along with his family, built the collection over 70 years.
