27 works across 4 institutions
New York holds 27 works by Mark Rothko across 4 institutions, including Museum of Modern Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and 2 other venues.
Rothko wanted his large colour-field paintings to evoke specific emotions, and he intended them to be viewed in subdued light, at close range. In person, the edges of his colour fields breathe and pulse in a way that is entirely lost in reproduction.

Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum

The Guggenheim Museum is as much architecture as institution — Frank Lloyd Wright's spiralling rotunda is one of the great buildings of the 20th century, and the collection of modern and contemporary art is among the finest in the world.

Planning your visit to New York
New York's major museums are spread across Manhattan — the Metropolitan Museum and Guggenheim are on the Upper East Side (4/5/6 subway), while MoMA is in Midtown and the Whitney is in the Meatpacking District. The Metropolitan suggests a donation rather than charging a fixed fee for New York State residents; out-of-state visitors pay the listed price. Allow a full day for the Met; the other collections are more manageable in a half-day.
