Art’s River Crossings – The Ohio
River is the true foundation of the
wealth of Greater Cincinnati. With the Tyler Davidson Fountain as
a
model of ideas that flow, we will look at the history of art and
culture on both sides of the river. This tour will present the
artistic partnerships and influences that cross the river and continue
to flow today. This tour series may include up to 3 of the
following
venues:
Taft Museum of Art
Baker-Hunt Art and Cultural Center

world to study, live, and work here that continues in our numerous
local galleries today. This tour series may include up to 3 of
the
following venues:

Waterways, Railways, Gateways – As a gateway city, Cincinnati’s art and
cultural history reflect a natural movement through our
cityscape.
This tour looks at art that specifically addresses movement into and
around Greater Cincinnati, specifically landscape painting, historical
events of migration, and abstract and conceptual notions of the
dynamics of Cincinnati life. This tour series may include up to 3
of
the following venues:
Taft Museum of Art
National Underground Freedom Center
Betts House
Baker-Hunt
The Body in Art – This is a well worn subject in the art tours.
From
the earliest arts into the present and across the cultures the image of
the body is probably the most prominent subject. This tour looks
at
the concepts of natural and idealized beauty of the human body, the
politicized image, and the body as an art medium. This tour
series may
include a museum, a private gallery, a visit to the studio of a local
artist, and/or visiting a tattoo artist.
