The Philip Johnson Architecture and Design Galleries, third floor
November 14, 2007-March 10, 2008
MoMA's Department of Architecture, founded in 1932, was the world's first curatorial department of its kind.
This exhibition of drawings and models from the collection celebrates the department's seventy-fifth birthday and demonstrates the development of its collecting practice, with several recent acquisitions on view.
The installation examines themes in the history of modern architecture—including organicism and expressionism; urbanism; visionary architecture; and the art of drawing—that were overlooked in MoMA's inaugural architecture exhibition, Modern Architecture: An International Exhibition, which defined the International Style for several generations.
