One of the country's top private collections of contemporary art, this is a bold assortment of avant-garde work: conceptual art, photography, sculpture and painting are all represented. Owned by brother and sister Jason and Jennifer Rubell, the collection features important works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Cindy Sherman, Jeff Koons and Charles Ray. It is located in a former Drug Enforcement Agency confiscation centre - something that the late Steve Rubell, founder of Manhattan's famous Studio 54 and uncle to Jennifer and Jason - would have found hugely amusing.
