Huge CHAGALL Free

Two mural-sized paintings grace the Linclon Center Plaza on cloudy days. The curtains are drawn on sunny days. Just inside the Met Opera. Or see them at night from inside the building.
Secret: Russian born French painter, Marc Chagall (1887-1985) visited the Met for the installation in 1966. Unable to face a great white wall in the orchestra rehearsal room, he found scaffolding and painted an explosive impromptu mural, 2 stories high. You have to join the orchestra to see it!
Secret #2: West Side Story was filmed on the proposed Lincoln Center site, delaying the razing of the area for the new construction in the early '60's.
