Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden
Art Gallery, Building, Museum, Opera House

Attached to the Museum of Modern Art between 53rd and 54th street and 5th and 6th avenue, the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden is a dynamic outdoor space in the heart of Midtown, New York City. The garden, which underwent extensive reconstruction in 2004 as part of a museum-wide restoration project by Japanese architect Yoshio Taniguchi, is always buzzing with visitors, yet remains a tranquil oasis amid the bustle of Manhattan’s busiest neighborhood—and one of the city’s most prized cultural institutions. With a large fountain as the focal point of the space, the garden is lined with trees and shrubbery and dotted with works by Picasso, Rodin, Ernst and Miró. Take a leisurely wander to absorb the surroundings, or commune at a table, enjoy a coffee and exchange artistic interpretations.
