The Chazen Museum of Art is a visual-arts institution located on the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus in Madison, Wisconsin. Its expansive two-building site houses a large public collection, notable for being Wisconsin's second-largest and the Big Ten's largest collecting museum. The 176,000-square-foot facility contains roughly 23,000 artworks spanning eras and regions—from ancient Greece and Western Europe to Moghul India, 18th-century Japan, the Soviet Empire, and modern Africa. As part of the university setting, it serves both campus communities and the broader public as a cultural and educational resource for exploring art and its contexts. Its location in a university town near the state capitol places it in a central cultural and academic setting.
