With Phil Desiere

[In-person tour] From sculptures to mosaics to murals on canvas, Rockefeller Center bursts with a remarkable collection of artwork, most of it in the Art Deco style. All of it is meant to support the vision of the Center’s founder and namesake, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Man’s achievements of the spirit, in science, and in industry are stressed, mainly in allegorical ways. Join Phil Desiere to learn about the Center’s famous and not-so famous artworks and how they emphasize the importance of education, wisdom, and international trade.
