This is the perfect guidebook for all artlovers who visit or live in New York, and an essential reference book for anyone interested in the history of art.
Its unique approach draws on the cream of New York's museums and galleries to create an easily navigable, narrative history of art and allows you to locate your favourite artist or style of art in any museum and follow it throughout the museums of New York.
Do you like, say, French art? This book will show you where to find it in New York, from great masterpieces of the genre on show in world-famous institutions to hidden gems housed in galleries off the beaten track.
Visit the Metropolitan Museum to take in Nicolas Poussin, Jacques-Louis David and Courbet; move on to the Frick Collection to see works by the Rococo painters Boucher and Fragonard, or take off to the Dahesh Museum, the only American institution devoted to the academic tradition in the 19th and 20th centuries.
The Art Guide also features concise histories and critical analyses of many important artists as well as key movements, showing you where to see, for example, Jackson Pollock's iconic works and pinpointing his former New York homes and haunts. See below for our exclusive interactive map preview of Jackson Pollocks's New York.
