J.M.W. Turner goes Nashville

If you needed a reason beyond Grand Ole Opry to visit Nashville next spring, now you’ve got one. Nashville’s Frist Art Museum will be the only U.S. host to an exhibit of paintings by British romantic master J.M.W. Turner, selected from the holdings of Britain’s Tate Gallery.

The exhibit, which includes 75 paintings from Turner’s 1846 bequest, now held by the Tate, will be in the Frist’s Ingram Gallery from February 20 to May 31.

The Frist Art Museum, originally endowed by the Frist family, occupies the former Nashville main post office building, worth seeing by itself.
