A selection of works in burnished stainless steel by David Smith (1906–1965), considered the most original and influential American sculptor of his generation, is installed on the Museum's dramatic Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Roof Garden, which offers a panoramic view of the Manhattan skyline. A vine-covered pergola provides a relaxing, shaded area overlooking Central Park.
