The High, Atlanta GA

The High Museum of Art presents itself as not only an architectural gem in downtown Atlanta, but also as a world renowned art museum.  It doesn’t disappoint as it offers such a diverse permanent collection and continues to bring in temporary and touring collections on a regular basis.

The Rise of Sneaker Culture is currently on exhibit at The High from June 11, 2016-August 14, 2016.  This is a must see exhibit.  It is a retrospective look at the sneaker throughout history and contains a rich inventory of sneakers.

The museum offers extensive permanent collections such as Folk and Self-Taught Art  which I found the most interesting due to it’s large representation of Howard Finster and Modern & Contemporary Art  containing  very impressive Basquiat paintings and many more influential sculptors and painters.

IMG_0779The High Museum in Atlanta is an important resource for other South Eastern cities in the United States.  Atlanta is an easy commute from Asheville, NC by car or plane.  Being so close to such a major city is an important part of why we chose to move to Asheville. Asheville offers a smaller city with an abundance of nature and a flourishing downtown filled with fine arts, opera, art, and culture while being so close to larger cities like Atlanta and Charlotte.  Conveniently you can live in the mountains and reach cosmopolitan cities within 2 to 3 hours.  Asheville continues to please.  This time it ticks the location box!
