And more, and more. Founded in 1929, MOMA is a modern art lover’s paradise. The museum has been closed for extensive renovations led by architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro along with Gensler.
This expansion adds more than 40,000 square feet of gallery space. It is designed to offer visitors ‘more ways to explore the Museum, from quietly contemplating a single work of art, to watching live rehearsals in the Studio, to meeting friends for art making, conversation, or dining. Our ground floor spaces will be free and open to all, with the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden, new street-level galleries, and a completely redesigned Museum Store.’

The new exhibits will include Sur moderno: Journeys of Abstraction—The Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Gift, celebrating modern Latin American Art, along with ‘watershed installations by living artists from the past twenty years in Surrounds to explorations of artists Donald Judd, Dorothea Lange, Pope.L, and Betye Saar.’
