“I like the Brooklyn Museum, but it could do a lot more. It’s fighting its history. It’s struggling because it doesn’t have the money or cache like other museums. They do good shows once in a while, but not often enough. Sometimes it just feels too tired, and sometimes I love that tiredness.”

“I grew up across the street from the Brooklyn Museum, and instead of going to summer camp every summer, I would go across the street and take their exceptional art classes for kids. If you go in the back by the elevators and take a left, you’ll come to area that looks like you’re not supposed to be there, but it’s actually totally OK. This is where you’ll find the children’s art show. It’s not cutesy or pretentious. It’s solid work done by 7-9 year olds.”
Todd Pendu
“The Brooklyn Museum of Art still does not get the credit it deserves as being one of the greatest museums in New York City. I am a huge fan of the Egyptian wing, which boasts one of the largest and most exclusive collections of Egyptian art pieces in the world. It rivals the Metropolitan in my opinion.”
