"Located in a landmark Renaissance Revival building in the heart of Gramercy Park, Fotografiska New York brings the artistic sensibilities of its Swedish headquarters to Manhattan. It’s a massive, for-profit gallery space with some of the city’s most interesting and eclectically-curated photography exhibitions—when this writer pays a visit, one floor is dedicated to the star-studded oeuvre of Terry O'Neill, while another is occupied by Fire and features work by 13 emerging photographers shortlisted for this year's Prix Pictet prize concerned in some way with that titular element. The options for food and drink—the lobby café, chic dining room Verōnika, and Chapel Bar—make this a day-to-night venue." - Andrea Whittle, Charlie Hobbs
"A photography museum and cultural venue where Susanne Bartsch met a publisher leading to the creation of her book."
"Unfortunately, this weekend’s forecast looks slightly different from the sunny perfect weather we’re all envisioning in our minds. For anyone seeking shelter someplace other than their own apartment, Fotografiska in Nomad is showing a series of Hassan Hajjaj’s portraits, which challenge stereotypical presentations of Arab aesthetics and culture. For more newly opened galleries and museum exhibits around the city, read NYCGo’s helpful compilation here. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"The New York City branch of the famed Swedish photography museum is housed in a spectacular 19th-century, 45,000-square-foot Renaissance Revival building. It features an adorable pet-themed exhibit named 'Best in Show.' The venue also includes the ritzy Veronika bar and restaurant and the cool Chapel Bar." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Over lunch at this 'objectively opulent' restaurant in the Fotografiska museum, Carrie tells Charlotte and Miranda about Aidan's upcoming dinner invitation." - Eater Staff
