Throughout its distinguished history, the CAC has earned a reputation for stimulating thought and introducing new ideas by presenting the work of diverse artists from around the world. The CAC is located in the Lois & Richard Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art, 44 East 6th Street, Cincinnati, Ohio.
