Bechtler Museum of Modern Art

The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art houses the Bechtler family's significant collection of mid-20th-century modern art, including works by artists such as Picasso, Giacometti, and Calder. The museum's Uptown building was designed by Swiss architect Mario Botta and opened in 2010. It is notable in Charlotte for bringing a major private modern art collection and a landmark contemporary architectural design to the city.
