Which museums/galleries in New York specialize in the Abstract Expressionist movement?

I had an ancestor who studied with Hans Hofmann and was part of the Abstract Expressionist movement in New York City, and I want to get more information about this relative. I'd like to speak with a curator who might be able to give more information, so I was wondering which museums or art galleries in New York specialize in abstract expressionism.

    Ann Temkin the Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.curated the huge abstract expressionist exhibition at the MOMA now on view from October 3, 2010, through April 25, 2011, taken from their vast collection. She would be the person to try to set up a meeting with; and this is the museum to go to now.
