For revisting a classic
Marsden Hartley's Maine at the Met Breuer
945 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10021
Marsden Hartley‘s Maine at Met Breuer is really terrific; illuminating the deep influence his native state had on his work. The recent renovation of the former Whitney building for the Met is worth a trip on its own; the Marcel Breuer building looks so fresh and more beautiful than ever.
For an unmissable art experience
