A visit to The Frick Collection evokes the splendor and tranquility of a time
gone by and at the same time testifies to how great art collections can still
inspire viewers today. Housed in the New York mansion built by Henry Clay Frick (1849-1919), one of America’s most successful coke and steel industrialists, are masterpieces of Western painting, sculpture, and decorative art, displayed in a serene and intimate setting. Each of sixteen galleries offers a unique presentation of works of art arranged for the most part without regard to period or national origin, in the same spirit as Mr. Frick enjoyed the art he loved before he bequeathed it to the public.
At Greenwich House, it could also mean creating a magnificent piece of artwork
at the Pottery School or perfecting a Liszt concerto at the Music School. Studies
have shown that just attending the arts makes you more likely to live a long
and healthy life. Just think how therapeutic putting your hands into a great
mound of clay could be in lowering your blood pressure!

Nicholas Roerich is known first and foremost as a Russian-born artist. His paintings, of which there are thousands around the world, explore the mythic origins, the natural beauty, and the spiritual strivings of humanity and of the world. The Museum displays approximately two hundred of these works, and keeps them permanently on display, for visitors who come from around the world. Indeed, for many of these visitors, the Museum is a destination of great importance; the paintings speak to them of their own inner yearnings and possible fulfillment. For them, Roerich’s paintings are a kind of teaching–about spiritual development, about culture and its role in human life, and about opportunities for the achievement of peace in a fractious world.
