There's plenty to see—for free—before you reach our Admissions Desk. From fixtures such as Deborah Kass's OY/YO, which has greeted visitors since 2018, to installations that transform our front steps, public art sets the stage for the full Brooklyn Museum experience. Revisit this page often to find what's new and rediscover fan favorites. Featured works include Mark di Suvero's steel sculpture Sooner or Later, Kehinde Wiley's Napoleon Leading the Army over the Alps, KAWS's Along the Way, and Hank Willis Thomas's LOVE RULES. Keith Yamashita's eight-part banner installation What season is it, America? encourages visitors to reflect on the nation's 250th anniversary.
