68 works across 3 institutions
New York holds 68 works by Wassily Kandinsky across 3 institutions, including Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Museum of Modern Art, and Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Kandinsky was among the first painters to make fully abstract works, and his canvases — dense with colour, form, and energy — make a compelling case for abstraction as a form of feeling. In person, the scale and vibrancy of his major paintings is difficult to convey 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.

Museum of Modern Art
New York · 8 works on display
MoMA holds the world's finest collection of modern and contemporary art — Picasso, Matisse, Pollock, Warhol, Rothko — in a purpose-designed building in Midtown. The permanent collection galleries are extraordinary even without a temporary exhibition.
Metropolitan Museum of Art
New York · 3 works on display
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the world's largest and most comprehensive art museums — over two million objects spanning 5,000 years. The Impressionist and Post-Impressionist galleries, the European Paintings collection, and the American Wing are particular highlights.
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.
