A culture on every street corner - United States, New York

Special feature United States, New York : A culture on every street corner

Welcome to the Upper East Side, the cultural district of New York. On 5th Avenue are found close by the MET (Metropolitan Museum of Art), the equivalent to the Louvre with more than three million works of art, the Frick collection assembled by a rich Pittsburgh industrial in the 1900, the Copper Hewitt Museum dedicated to design,the International Centre for photography, the Whitney Museum dedicated to American artists, and finally, the incredible and audacious Salomon R. Guggenheim Museum. A round building full of curves created by the architect Franck Lloyd Wright in 1951, that is really worth the trip. Its collections are impressive. Among the works exhibited, you find Chagall, Delaunay, Paul Klee, Mondrian, Kandinsky, Modigliani, Cézanne or Pissarro.
