Guide to the Art Museums of New York: The Guide That Explains the Art

There is an "Art Boom" going on in the USA and Europe and nowhere is it greater that in New York City. Although art works have enormous emotional and intellectual appeal they are the most difficult and time-consuming sight-seeing; they don't reveal their meaning easily, and thousands of them can be displayed in one museum.
