If it was possible to give this no stars I would. I recently visited the new Bowery location. I love photography and this place was seriously awful. This was a horrible excuse for a photo museum. No creativity. Small exhibits. Incredibly overpriced. Disgusting content. Barely any photos. Mostly videos of snapshots and YouTube videos. This started out as a top priority for me to visit in the city and wow was I EXTREMELY disappointed. Don't waste your money and don't take your children. Also the website needs to be updated to show the address has changed. What a complete joke. I only wish I could unsee what I saw and get a refund. The MET is only $2 more. Go there instead. They have a huge photography section.
