Cleveland Artists Foundation
Cleveland's Center for Regional Art
"Accompanied by catalogs with fresh observations by scholars and researchers, the foundation's exhibitions are building awareness of the region's greatest achievements in the visual arts in the 20th century. That's an essential service-and at the moment, no other institution in the city is doing it as consistently, or as well." --Steven Litt, Plain Dealer Art Critic
