| About: | This sculpture collection is housed in a Mediterranean-style building that served as home to the renowned Czechoslovakian sculptor from 1949 until his death in 1961. Prior to his Florida retirement, Polasek had served more than 35 years as chair of the Chicago Art Institute's sculpture department. Visitors can stroll through three galleries and a three-acre sculpture garden, gazing on the master's paintings and his classical sculptures. The latter are heroic in style, chiseled with an attention to muscle and sinew reminiscent of Michelangelo's works. |

Fabulous: The museum has lots of special events for everyone, and on normal days, it's great to just go and check out the artwork. They have Albin Polasek's works (sculptures, paintings, crusifixes, sketches, etc.) and works of other artists also (have had John Sloan and Vladimir Fomin). It's a little museum that doesn't intimidate, and has just enough employees to make sure your visit is fabulous! :) Great place to volunteer at :)
You all are the greatest!!: Hello everyone! I just want to thank you all for all that you did to make my engagement so special. Jimmy has imazing ideas but he couldn't have pulled it off without you. I was so suprised. I couldn't have been asked in a more special way. I love sculpture and the arts. Thank you all again. You all won't be forgotten.
