Located
in the heart of Miami Beach's Art Deco District, The Wolfsonian
promotes the collection, preservation, and interpretation of art
and design from the period 1885-1945. Through exhibitions and
public programs, The Wolfsonian investigates the ways in which
material culture both shapes and reflects human experience. The
collection includes more than 70,000 objects-from rare books to
decorative arts and furniture-drawn primarily from North America,
Europe, and Russia/Soviet Union.
