Please join us for our bimonthly program welcoming individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing to participate in an ASL–interpreted, private gallery talk focusing on one of MoMA’s exhibitions, along with a wine and snack reception.
In September, we will explore the exhibition Crafting Modernity: Design in Latin America, 1940–1980 with curatorial assistant Amanda Forment. This exhibition presents visions of modernity proposed by designers of home environments in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Venezuela between 1940 and 1980. The home became a site of experimentation for modern living during a period marked by dramatic political, economic, and social changes, which had broad repercussions for Latin American visual culture. For nearly half a century, the design of the domestic environment embodied ideas of national identity, models of production, and modern ways of living.
Registration opens on August 8 at 10:00 a.m.
Interpreting MoMA is offered free of charge. Space is limited and advance registration is required.
