| - I casually strolled in to Chazen expecting a bunch of student art, but was blown away by what I found instead. Chazen has a beautiful collection of breathtaking permanent exhibits, and their current temporary print exhibit knocked my socks off. Lautrec posters and Hokusai prints all to myself!
The curators here are clearly at the top of their trade and make the State Street Museum of Contemporary Art look like a bad joke in comparison. Pound for pound, this is probably the most interesting art museum in the midwest, on par with the Art Institue of Chicago. How it only has 10 reviews right now is beyond me. If you're in Madison near campus, you must stop in Chazen. And it's FREE.
Here's a big tip, there is free parking on many campus lots after 4:30 or all day on weekends. Here is the current list that this applies to: Lots 4, 16, 19, 26, 33, 34, 35, 37, 39, 40, 41, 43, 45, 51, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 64, 82, 86, 94 and all Moped stalls
