Interesting art in a great building

The museum building is beautiful, airy, with amazing views of Hudson. Even elevators are distinct, cave like and artsy. Exhibits are roomy and there are benches to sit and enjoy. There is some great art, as well as some interesting, provocative and unusual pieces and concepts. Definitely worth a visit, would need about 1.5-2 hours for highlights. Enjoyed the 8th floor the most with Edward Hopper and Georgia O’Keefe. One of the Biennale exhibits: pandemonium installation, also caught my eye. The exhibit of Andy Warhol Polaroids was quite unique as well. Lots of tours and many activities in the museum.

There Are Some Interesting Paintings

We happened to visit it on the 2nd Sunday, a free day. The exhibit arrangement is a bit disorganized, and the day we visited, there was only one Edward Hopper on display. But there are 3 Akira Ikezoe paintings that are fascinating the view and digest. After the museum, we walked the High Line Park, with its beginning just outside the museum. A very nice experience.

American Art

It is an interesting building with beautiful views of the river. 8 floors. Start at the top. There are elevators. Full disclosure: this is a museum of modern American art. That is not my cup of tea. That said, there were many interesting pieces including Warhol and Hopper. We did the whole thing in about an hour. Easy subway ride and walk. We followed the directions on the website.
