Book Description
Today the Museum of Modern Art is widely recognized for establishing the canon of modern art; yet in its early years, the museum considered modern art part of a still unfolding experiment in contemporary visual production. By bracketing MoMA's early history from its later reputation, this book explores the ways the Museum acted as a laboratory to set an ambitious agenda for the exhibition of a multidisciplinary idea of modern art. Between its founding in 1929 and its 20th anniversary in 1949, MoMA created the first museum departments of architecture and design, film, and photography in the country, marshaled modern art as a political tool, and brought consumer culture into a versatile yet institutional context. Encompassing 14 essays that investigate the diversity of modern art, this volume demonstrates how MoMA's programming shaped a version of modern art that was not elitist but fundamentally intertwined with all levels of cultural production.

Book Description
The first guide of its kind in over a half century, this work contains 1,108 descriptions in 24 categories. It presents a comprehensive picture of museums, galleries, and related facilities in American universities and colleges. The first 10 chapters offer an overview of the field, dealing with such aspects as history, mission, types, governance, and much more. It is an essential in-house reference tool for all campus museums and galleries and should be found in university, college, and public libraries as well. Students and their visitors may be surprised at the wealth and variety of culture readily available on their own campuses, and this guide makes the investigatory task easy. The directory describes museums and similar facilities in 24 categories, with nearly half the institutions being art museums and art galleries. The others range from agricultural museums to botanical gardens. Beyond being fascinating in its scope, the book provides a wide variety of information about the operations of the facilities--practical details that are not available anywhere else. This is the book where professionals can learn about each other and visitors can research just what is available on any campus.
