The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
The Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City, colloquially the Met,[a] is the largest art museum in the United States. With 6,953,927 visitors to its three locations in 2018, it was the third most visited art museum in the world.[8] Its permanent collection contains over two million works,[9] divided among seventeen curatorial departments. The main building, on the eastern edge of Central Park along Museum Mile in Manhattan's Upper East Side is by area one of the world's largest art galleries. A much smaller second location, The Cloisters at Fort Tryon Park in Upper Manhattan, contains an extensive collection of art, architecture, and artifacts from Medieval Europe. On March 18, 2016, the museum opened the Met Breuer museum at Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side; it extends the museum's modern and contemporary art program.
The permanent collection consists of works of art from classical antiquity and ancient Egypt, paintings, and sculptures from nearly all the European masters, and an extensive collection of American and modern art. The Met maintains extensive holdings of African, Asian, Oceanian, Byzantine, and Islamic art. The museum is home to encyclopedic collections of musical instruments, costumes, and accessories, as well as antique weapons and armor from around the world. Several notable interiors, ranging from 1st-century Rome through modern American design, are installed in its galleries.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded in 1870 for the purposes of opening a museum to bring art and art education to the American people. It opened on February 20, 1872, and was originally located at 681 Fifth Avenue.

MUSEUM OF MODERN ART BUILDINGS FOR BUSINESS AND GOVERNMENT EXHIBITION 1957 62794
This film (likely hosted by Arthur Drexler) chronicles the Buildings for Business and Government exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, February 27-April 28, 1957.
Original press release text: Six buildings commissioned by business and government will be shown at the Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, from February 26 through May 5 in an exhibition demonstrating the important role a new kind of patronage is playing in the current building program that is changing the face of our country and the face it presents abroad. Actual sections of walls of glazed brick, pierced tile, glass and aluminum, a suspended ceiling of aluminum discs and granite paving have been built in the Museum's galleries to show visitors the fine materials used in these buildings. Large models are accompanied by photographic murals to show the individual character of each building as fully as possible. Selected by Arthur Drexler, Director of the Museum's Department of Architecture and Design, Buildings for Business and Government illustrates a range of contemporary architectural problems and possibilities. The General Motors Technical Center in Detroit, designed by Eero Saarinen and Associates, and the US Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill are large, complex projects composed of several buildings on three and four hundred acre sites. The Seagram Building at 375 Park Avenue by Mies van der Rone and Philip C. Johnson, and the Chase Manhattan Bank building in the Wall Street area by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill are being built in two of the most famous and crowded areas in the world, where space is the most valuable commodity. The St. Louis Air Terminal by Holimuth, Yamasaki and Leinweber must fit today's needs and yet be easily expanded for tomorrow's traffic and population. The US Embassy in New Delhi by Edward Stone is an example of the excellent work being done abroad by the government where architecture is an important representative of America. Mr. Drexler says: Business and government alike are rediscovering the rewards of fine building,
and the results can be seen not only in individual works of great beauty but in a generally higher standard of excellence....The United States no longer demands that major government commissions be executed in antique styles. Embassies being built abroad by the State Department, as part of a program which began in 1956, and the new Academy for the United States Air Force, look like what they are: modern American buildings. Business organizations are now undertaking building programs that deliberately exceed strict utilitarian limits. Happily our buildings are beginning to benefit from the attention to material, craftsmanship, and detail lavished on the
automobile and other industrial products. Today's most valuable material, however, is space. In the present condition of our cities the use to which land is put is a decisive factor in architectural quality. Releasing part of a site so that it may be used as open space allows light and air to penetrate narrow streets, and makes it possible to see the buildings--a consideration of some importance if we are to have architecture at all. The concern with esthetic and social values shown by government and business through these buildings is not in itself new. It denotes rather a shift in emphasis clients are becoming patrons.
We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment! See something interesting? Tell people what it is and what they can see by writing something for example: 01:00:12:00 -- President Roosevelt is seen meeting with Winston Churchill at the Quebec Conference.
