The Museum of Modern Art in New York

I wrote my dissertation about this museum and so I know A LOT about it.   However, I haven’t been there since I left New York ten years ago.  But ten years ago, it was a great experience.  I’m not a fan of the building, which I found rather alienating and confusing, but the art is beyond compare.  Their permanent collection is a must-see for anyone interested in modernism- they have a collection of modern masterpieces that can’t be matched.  They also have splendid education and research facilities, including an excellent website with lesson plans, videos, and an interactive tour for kids.
