Brooklyn Museum of Art

I went to see the money exhibit and it is spectacular. It is absolutely worth the additional fee. The photos at the end are from that temporary exhibit. I was really happy to see quite a few other artists and their depiction of Venice, alongside the ones by Monet. They are rearrange the permanent collection since I was last there and I really liked the new format a lot. There’s a lot of great artworks in here. If you’re short of time on your first trip to New York, and you have to pick between the Met and here, you probably want to go to the Met. But if it’s a follow up trip for you and you haven’t been here yet, it’s worth your time to come out.

First time visiting after living in Brooklyn for 6 years. I love the exhibition design, it feels different from other major museums like the Met or MoMA. The rooms are spacious, and I love that the arts emit the sense humanity and community. The ticket is pay-what-you-want in person, so if you don’t feel like paying for full price, remember to go to the reception to get tickets.

Wonderful experience seeing Monet’s pieces set in Venice. The galleries were very spacious and thoughtfully arranged; descriptions helped bring each piece to life. This museum is one of my personal favorites and love visiting during fall & winter — truly captivating collection.

The Monet & Venice exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum is beautifully done. It captures the elegance of Monet’s late work, where Venice becomes less a city and more a study of light, reflection, and atmosphere. The galleries are curated with restraint and care, letting the paintings speak for themselves. The colors shift softly from rose to violet to gold, each canvas dissolving a little more into air. It’s a show that reminds you how powerful subtlety can be, and how an artist near the end of his life could still find new ways to see. Thoughtful, balanced, and deeply serene - one of the museum’s strongest exhibitions in years.

Amazing place that gets it right: really inclusive, really addressing current debates and dilemmas in art, adopting a really reflective attitude The actual art is fantastic: contemporary, colourful, interesting, provocative…. And the cafe has brilliant coffee. Only suggestion: please enrich the shop with many many souvenirs and interesting reflections of the art. I’d looove to have something to remind me of my day in this museum Do.not.miss.
