The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) is the foremost museum of modern art in the world. The newly renovated 630,000-square-foot Museum highlights space and light, with open rooms, high ceilings, and gardens – a beautiful work of architecture and a perfect complement to the art that resides within:
Its collection includes more than 150,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints and photographs apart from many other pieces of modern art. Among this fascinating collection you’ll find van Gogh’s Starry Night, Cezanne’s Bather, Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, and the amazing sculpture by Rodin, Monument to Balzac, just to name a few.
The very high ($20) admission charge for adults is annoyingly hefty, but, however, it’s definitely worth the money. It’s free fridays from 16 to 20 hours.
