    Your expert guide will guide you through the many galleries and halls housing some of the world’s most famous 19th and 20th century artwork. You’ll be introduced to Mondrian’s famous geometric patterns of color. You’ll learn all about Spanish-born Picasso and Dali, who produced some of their greatest artwork during the Spanish Civil War. Learn about the Impressionists through Monet and the abstract-expressionists through Mark Rothko. Step back into the 1960s when the beloved Andy Warhol created pop art with the faces of Marilyn Monroe and other celebrities. Stand around Duchamp’s “Fountain” and take a long, deep breath before diving into questions about what art is in the first place.
