When Franz Kafka died of tuberculosis at the age of forty, in 1924, few could have predicted the influence his relatively small body of work would have on every realm of thought and creative endeavor over the course of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. This exhibition will present, for the first time in the United States, the Bodleian Library’s extraordinary holdings of literary manuscripts, correspondence, diaries, and photographs related to Kafka, including the original manuscript of his novella The Metamorphosis. Other highlights include the manuscripts of his novels Amerika and The Castle; letters and postcards addressed to his favorite sister, Ottla; his personal diaries, in which he also composed fiction, including his literary breakthrough, the 1912 story “The Judgment”; and unique items such as his drawings, the notebooks he used when studying Hebrew, and family photographs.
In addition to presenting unique literary and biographical material, the exhibition examines Kafka’s afterlife, from the complex journeys of his manuscripts, to the posthumous creation of a literary icon whose very name has become an adjective, to his immense influence on the worlds of literature, theater, dance, film, and the visual arts. Drawing on institutional holdings and private collections in the United States and Europe, the Morgan will show a selection of key works, among them Andy Warhol’s portrait of Kafka, part of his 1980 series Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century.

When I heard that this treasure classical museum in Midtown New York has a rich library collection museum, I immediately added it to the punch list, and after shopping, I immediately upgraded to New York&#39;s favorite Top3 museum series, whether it is the appearance of the museum or the exhibits inside. It&#39;s a surprise. Such a spectacular museum is the famous private collection of J. P. Morgan, and there are many of his donations in the Metropolitan Museum. Seeing the library of books on a grand scale, I instantly realized the true meaning of the old saying that the book has its own golden house. The museum itself is also very architectural, from the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano, the library and the museum itself are very cleverly integrated together, the classical library, looking up is full of books, with deep red printed walls and velvet curtains, Full of literary temperament, it must be a different kind of enjoyment to read here

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a stunning art palace, with a rich collection that is enough to make people linger. Whether it is ancient Egyptian statues, European Renaissance paintings, or Asian calligraphy and porcelain, each exhibition hall is like a window to different civilizations. Just standing in the Egyptian Pavilion and looking at the fully restored Temple of Dendur is enough to make people marvel at the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient times.

In the European Painting Gallery, Van Gogh&#39;s &quot;Wheat Field and Cypresses&quot; and Monet&#39;s &quot;Water Lilies&quot; and other works are right in front of you, and every stroke is full of vitality. The Armor and Weapons Exhibition Hall is like walking into the world of medieval knights, and those finely crafted armors seem to still tell stories on the battlefield. Even if you spend a whole day, you still feel that time is not enough. Every time you enter an exhibition hall, you can find new surprises and you are reluctant to leave.

It is worth taking a boat to visit the island and experience the Statue of Liberty up close. It is taller and bigger than what you see in the movies. The plots in some movies have become concrete. There is a museum on the island where you can watch a video introducing the internal structure of the goddess!

There&rsquo;s something magical about seeing the Empire State Building in real life&mdash;it feels like stepping into a movie. The architecture is stunning, and it stands so proudly over the city. I caught myself just looking up for a while, taking it all in. Definitely one of those New York moments that stays with you.
