Along the way, we also visit the American Wing to see a special presentation of works by George Morrison, a pioneering modernist painter and sculptor. From there, we head up to the Roof Garden for sweeping city views and sculptures by Jennie C. Jones, before diving into the Met’s permanent collections with visits to the Oceania Art gallery and the Arts of Africa galleries. The original music in this video was composed to create an ambient, nostalgic atmosphere. At times, we added subtle textures inspired by the crackle of vintage vinyl records — not a defect, but a creative choice meant to evoke the warmth and memory of listening to old records. Don't miss Part 2 of our Met series — with more galleries and hidden corners coming soon. 00:00 - Intro Walking to The Met 01:03 - Modern & Contemporary Art Collection 11:02 - Philip Guston Painting Exhibition 11:46 - 2nd Fl Modern & Contemporary Art Collection 15:52 - Georgia O'Keeffe Exhibition 17:50 - Lorna Simpson Exhibition 19:39 - Oceanic Art Exhibit 20:54 - African Art Exhibit 26:42 - George Morrison Painting Exhibition (American Wing) 27:50 - Roof Garden at The Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC 29:22 - Superfine (Met Gala Exhibit) 31:03 - Upper East Side NYC Ambient Walk #nycmuseums #artmuseum #themet #contemporaryart #modernart #artexhibition #arttour #museumtour #georgiaokeeffe #superfine #nyclife #artcollection #uppereastside
