Artists of Toledo

Toledo’s Art

The Toledo Museum of Art had four directors in the first 75 years, who did really good things. But then there have been seven directors in the last 50 years, lately not so good.

“The superpower that an art museum has is when something goes up on the wall, it’s considered good. We set the canon.”

Adam Levine, 11th Director of The Toledo Museum of Art

For a museum that was begun by artists, it is a shame that in 2025 it does not have even one artist on its 30-member board of directors. They are completely out of touch.
