The museum has an extraordinary and diverse collection of modern art. The only other comparable collection is in Chicago Art Institute. You don’t have to love modern art in order to appreciate the collection. It is still enjoyable and educational.
This is one of the great museum I've been admiring. We have been here many times and it never failed to amazed of the arts displayed. It never gets old and I'm always in awe every time we visit. Their courtyard is also beautiful, sometimes people have meetings and other gatherings there. Pretty neat. They are in the works for expanding the museum and I can't wait to go back and see the new additions. I am looking forward to my next visit with friends!
The new expansion of the museum is astonishingly good. The galleries have been completely reorganized, with less emphasis on chronology and more focus on themes and artistic relationships that helps you see even familiar works in a new light. The expansion lets the museum show rarely seen works from what likely is the world's greatest collection of modern art. Even if you've been there before, go again - it's a completely new experience.
I had great expectations for what would have been my third visit there. Alas, the museum was closed until October 21, 2019! As much as I understand the need for refurbishment, how can they choose summer, the time of the year when tourists are traveling, to do it? On top of it, lack of advertising of this led me to discover it just when arriving a few yards from the door. Therefore, I spent 1 day stop over and $ 300 hotel and taxi to and fro JFK for nothing. MoMA, and consequently NYC, you’ve lost my patronage for ever.
Oh my God. If you love and appreciate art or if think it's stupid you'll love this place. They even offer free headphones that explains the artist and their work. A definite must visit.
