This Is New York: 100 Years of the City in Art and Pop Culture

Now on view

New exhibition content just dropped! Hear from Lilly Tuttle, one of the four curators who brought This Is New York to life. Focusing on the gallery “At Home in New York” which she curated, Lilly highlights two objects that, though very different at first glance, represent living in the city can feel. Watch now to see why she chose them, what they say about New York, and how they can be in conversation with one another. 

Visit the exhibition to see these works and while you’re here check out our interactive bookshelf to explore excerpts from books and TV shows that talk about home. Explore the rest of the third floor, including “You Are Here,” which AMNY just named “the best movie in New York.” Read more.
