In honor of the centennial anniversary of the founding of the Museum of the City of New York as the city’s storyteller, This Is New York: 100 Years of the City in Art and Pop Culture explores the many ways that the city has inspired storytelling across art forms. It features both famous and lesser-known depictions of New York in film and television, visual and performing arts, music, poetry and literature, and even fashion, painting a collective, moving, and sometimes funny version of a city that has captured the imagination of the world. The full-floor exhibition is organized around the types of urban spaces where the stories of New York are told and the emotions that the experience of joining the public crowd often evoke, whether joy or alienation, fear or pride.
