Visionary+Arts+Museum

The American Visionary Arts Museum is located in Baltimore, Maryland. It is a museum that only displays artists who have no formal training.

-The most visited piece of art at the AVAM, is the 12-foot statue of **Divine** by Andrew Logan. Make sure to shake and wiggle while staring at her!

-In the Tall Sculpture Barn, there is a life-sized **interactive chess set** made from old machine parts. North Carolina's Lyle Estill welded and melded to make a chorus of angels and an onslaught of aliens. Go forth and capture the Queen!

Inventors and tinkerers from around the area come to the Visionary Arts Museum to see if their machines can travel on land, sea, mud, and grass! Check out the video to see some of the 2010 sculptures in action!
