The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Highlights / General details

At New York City’s most visited museum and attraction, you will experience the best of human creativity from across the globe. With collections spanning more than 5,000 years of culture, from prehistory to the present, the Metropolitan is a journey through the world’s greatest art. The Museum’s renowned collections, some 30 special exhibitions a year, and an array of public guided tours are all free with admission. Also, the Met Audio Guide offers a low-cost option of more than 100 hours of informative audio commentary available in 10 languages, developed by curators and educators. Plus, enjoy dining facilities and shopping at The Met Store.

As part of the inaugural season at The Met Breuer, diane arbus: in the beginning opened on July 12, featuring more than 100 photographs that together redefine one of the most influential and provocative artists of the 20th century. This landmark exhibition highlights never-before-seen early work of Diane Arbus (1923–71), focusing on the first seven years of her career, from 1956 to 1962—the period in which she developed the idiosyncratic style and approach for which she has been recognized, praised, criticized, and copied the world over.

The exhibition is made possible by the Alfred Stieglitz Society.

Additional support is provided by The Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation and the Art Mentor Foundation Lucerne.
