The Museum of Modern Art

Modern art museum with masterworks from van Gogh to Warhol and a tranquil sculpture garden.
This guide to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City opens in 1928, when Abby Aldrich Rockefeller invited two friends to lunch with a radical proposal: a museum devoted entirely to modern art. You'll hear how she pressed ahead against her husband John D. Rockefeller Jr.'s objections, teaming with collectors Lillie Bliss and Mary Quinn Sullivan to open the museum in rented rooms in 1929, just days after the Wall Street Crash.
