In the 200-year history of the museum as a paramount center of culture,
there has probably never been a more effective institution than the
department of architecture and design at the Museum of Modern Art. Its
diamond jubilee is now being celebrated in a new exhibition, "75 Years
of Architecture at MoMA."
The show displays a choice and representative sampling of the museum's
extensive horde of drawings and models by some of the most famous
architects of the modern and postmodern movements. It is also the first
exhibition at MoMA to be curated by the new chief curator of
architecture and design, Barry Bergdoll, together with a curatorial
assistant, Alexandra Quantrill.
