What To Expect

Brooklyn Museum

Brooklyn Museum is one of the oldest and largest art museums in the United States. Its roots extend back to 1823 and the founding of the brooklyn Apprentices' Library to educate young tradesmen (Walt Whitman would later become one of its librarians). The Brooklyn Museum was conceived as the focal point of a planned cultural, recreational, and educational district for the burgeoning city of Brooklyn. Although the scope of that envisioned complex of parks, gardens, and buildings changed after the once-independent Brooklyn was absorbed into New York City in 1898, many features of the plan were eventually realized and are reflected in what can be seen today. In recent years, the Museum has focused on redesigning its galleries and reinstalling its major collections to make them more accessible to the public. Flowing spaces, vivid wall colors, dramatic graphic elements, and multimedia components feature in many of these reconfigured galleries. The collections of American painting and sculpture, with significant additions from Spanish colonial and Native American art, were reorganized in 2001 to form the long-term installation “American Identities: A New Look” within completely reconceived gallery spaces. With a mission to create inspiring encounters with art that expand the ways we see ourselves, the world and its possibilities, visiting this museum is an educational and cultural experience not to be missed!

What a wonderful and varied museum. Egyptian articles over 3000 years old, sarcophagi, mummies, scrolls. Old master's, bronze statues by Rodin. Exhibition s on feminist struggled. The LGBT struggle and the Christopher Street Rebellion. A small scale of the Statue of Liberty. So much more to see. It has a Subway stop right in front and it is next to the beautiful Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Give yourself at least 6 hours to do your visit justice.

This local treasure, very much updated both architecturally and exhibit-wise, is almost always a good bet. This particular exhibit was an extensive look at works on paper, from original woodcuts by Durer to Picasso and beyond. Wide span of techniques, e.g. lithographs, and good notes. However, concomitant with this exhibit is another exhibit of a TED talk by Titus (sorry don't recall last name), an African-American artist, with a very particular point of view. Not only did we see an example of his work together with the video of the Ted talk, the museum also had available (we had to ask) an extra flyer with Titus' comments on about 15 of the drawings, including works by Gaugin, Degas, etc. While I may not agree with him, it made for an interesting discussion. Definitely worth a visit!

We took the subway from Union Square to get to Brooklyn---with the help of a friend, we eventually made it, and the museum is right outside the subway stop. It's a big place, and on Sunday we visited, you could pay what you wanted. My wife paid full price ($16), and since I'm just a few months from the Senior price of $10, I offered that. $26 for the two of us is very cheap compared to most museums. Most of the exhibits were open. My wife and I thought the museum was short on painting, but had some great photography exhibits, and the Egyptian floor is very good. The book/gift shop is smallish, but full featured. We spent about 2 hours there and afterwards were hoping to find a spot to eat, but found the immediate neighborhood short on offerings. There were several food trucks outside, offering hot dogs, popcorn (and entire truck devoted to popcorn) and something that the vendor claimed was a soft pretzel. It was soft, but tasted like nothing I've ever had before. Bathrooms were plentiful, modern and very clean.
