WEAM - World Erotic Wilzig Art Museum


The World Erotic Art Museum, located in the heart of Miami Beach, Florida Art Deco District, is a museum, library, and educational think tank that uses its collection to illustrate the history of erotic art. Contains Naomi Wilzig's collection.

The collection includes sculptures, drawings, paintings and photographs. The collection ranges from folk art to the work of famous artists. The museum displays works of art by artists such as Rembrandt, Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Fernando Botero, as well as Robert Maplethorpe, Helmut Newton and Bunny Yeager to name but a few out of over 4000.

In April 2008, the Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama and the its representative Artspace Company Y, LLC, partnered with WEAM staff to create the first public personal art exhibition at WEAM, which added Sorayama's art to their pre-existing permanent collections.

In 2011 WEAM premiered the first US exhibition of rare erotic Rembrandt engravings belonging to the Barony of Fulwood Trust, the exhibition was curated by the Baron of Fulwood and Dirleton. In 2012 the curator Helmut Schuster organized Helmut Newton's first solo exhibition in Florida in collaboration with the MDM of Salzburg.
