American Craft Museum

Address: 
40 W 53rd St.
Phone: 
(1) (212) 956-3535
city: 
Description: 

The galleries are arranged in a unique fashion, on a series of interior balconies, with curving stairways linking the different levels. The works on display are mostly contemporary crafts, though they aren’t the abstract forms that most people would expect from contemporary art. Some pieces, are so outlandish that they are amusing to look at, while some have a social message at the center of the work. Almost all of the gallery space is devoted to temporary exhibits, so the works on display when you visit might be quite different than what is described here.
