MoMA – The museum for modern art

New York’s Museum of Modern Art MoMA is a sole reason to visit the Big Apple. Recently completely renovated, the museum hosts several floors of the most important art of the 20th century. Name any major modernist and you can bet on finding at least one work of him in the museum.

MoMA is conveniently located in New York’s midtown, near Fifth Avenue. There are a couple metro stations nearby, and of course yellow cabs will get you there in no time (unless it is Saturday late afternoon rush hour).

The permanent collections are more than worth a stroll for a generic overview and the exhibitions dive deeper to a certain artist or a movement. The works of art are put on display with enough space and the museum never felt too crowded. The small sculpture garden is a nice place for some fresh air and art.

There is a design store, a well-stocked bookstore, café and restaurant in the premises.
