Descriptive Summary

Creator: The Museum of Modern Art, Department of Communications
Title: Public Information Records
Dates: 1929-1997
Quantity: 114.25 linear feet
212 scrapbooks
44 microfilm reels

Arrangement

The scrapbooks are arranged numerically, Numbers 1-136, preceded by scrapbooks entitled “1929 Clippings” and “1930 Clippings,” and followed by scrapbooks labeled General A-Z.
The index to the scrapbooks is alphabetically arranged by subject. Scrapbook number(s) appear(s) after each entry. Dates in the index refer to the article, not to the actual event. MF, following the entry, refers to the microfilm reel and frame number on which the article appears; only the first frame concerning a subject is listed.
Museum-related events, with the exception of exhibitions, have appropriate subheadings under “The Museum of Modern Art” subject heading. For instance, Museum acquisitions, anniversaries, and buildings are subheadings under “The Museum of Modern Art.” Books and articles written by staff members appear under subject, author, and, when applicable, Museum exhibition. Exhibitions are referenced under the exhibition title or, in the case of one-man exhibitions, under the artist's last name. One-man exhibitions with titles such as The Prints of Rouault are indexed under Prints of Rouault, The and under Rouault, Georges.
Series II material was received by the Museum Archives in varying degrees of chronological order. Both Subseries A and Subseries B are arranged in chronological order according to the exhibition, event, or subject date(s). Exhibitions with the same start date but with different end dates are ordered chronologically according to end date. Also, exhibitions with the same dates are ordered alphabetically by exhibition title. Exhibitions or events dated only by month or only by year are placed at the beginning of the given month or year.
Subseries C material is arranged alphabetically by the last name of the individual.
Subseries A consists of 101 standard document boxes and 6 oversize document boxes. Subseries B consists of 153 standard document boxes, and Subseries C comprises 6 standard document boxes.
The Papers are organized into two Series:
Series I: Public Information Scrapbooks, 1929-70s.
Series II: Public Information Records.
Subseries II.A
Subseries II.B
Subseries II.C


Historical Note

The records were compiled by what is now known as the Department of Communications. It was originally the Department of Publicity from 1933 until the 1960s, and later known as the Department of Public Information (PI), from the 1960s through 1994.

The responsibilities of the Department of Communications are twofold: to serve as the official conduit of information between the Museum and the media and to increase public awareness and support for the Museum. Therefore, the Department of Communications also handles all press relations and inquiries for the Museum regarding special exhibitions, events, projects, and programs. It is, in effect, the public voice of the Museum. The department's goal is to generate a larger audience for the Museum and its exhibitions and to manage the Museum's image in the media. As a corollary, from the department's inception, it collected and assembled newspaper and magazine clippings from around the world concerning Museum exhibitions and events.


Scope and Content Note

Series I of the Public Information Records consist of 212 scrapbooks (16 x 13 x 2"; 58 linear feet) of thousands of newspaper and magazine clippings concerning The Museum of Modern Art from its opening in 1929 through the mid 1970s. They document not only the history of the Museum but also the profound influence the Museum has had on the development of twentieth-century culture. Included are accounts of exhibitions shown at the Museum and circulated elsewhere; reviews of books and exhibition catalogs written by staff members; Museum programs, personnel, policy, and department changes; building renovations and expansions; parties and benefits; fund-raising campaigns; anniversaries; lectures, concerts, and symposia; film series; visits by dignitaries; and trustee appointments.

In addition, the scrapbooks reflect a variety of issues and controversies that surrounded Museum events during the institution's first four decades: for example, Museum activities during World War II; the suspicion that modern art represented a communist threat in the 1950s; art education; art as commodity; the Museum as a proselytizer of good design; fashions inspired by various Museum exhibitions; and criticism and praise of the Museum. Several scrapbooks are devoted to the Young People's Gallery and to the Children's Art Carnivals, both part of the Museum's important, pioneering Education Program.

The scrapbooks are an excellent source of information about twentieth-century artists; for example, an entire scrapbook is devoted to Picasso (Scrapbook General U) and a large portion of another to Giacometti (Scrapbook General V). Articles written by and/or about staff members important to the Museum's development and to an understanding of the art of the time were also collected.

The organization and arrangement of the scrapbooks make them an invaluable and unique research tool for the cultural and social historian as well as the art historian.

Series II consists of three Subseries of records. Subseries A consists of 44 linear feet of newspaper and magazine clippings that document miscellaneous events at the Museum from 1929 to the mid-1960s, and thereafter nearly every exhibition and event. In addition to exhibitions, examples of events covered include acquisitions, book publications, Museum programs, building renovations, and personnel and policy changes. Also covered are parties, benefits, and fund-raising campaigns; and lectures, symposia, and film series. There are articles written by or about the Museum's staff members and articles on the topic of modern art in general. The clippings also trace the origin and evolution of innovative series at the Museum, such as Projects and Cineprobe. Materials on the artists Pablo Picasso, Edward Steichen, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe are especially rich.

Subseries B comprises 67.25 linear feet of departmental administrative records. It includes correspondence, invitations, press kits, posters, photographs, slides, publicity reports, and exhibition checklists, proposals, catalogs, schedules, and wall texts. It also covers exhibitions as well as programs such as Summergarden, an annual concert series, and Party in the Garden, an annual fund-raising event. In Subseries B, material on artists Jasper Johns, Chuck Close, and Alfred Stieglitz are particularly significant.

Together, the clippings of Subseries A and the administrative records of Subseries B provide a unique overview of how the Museum publicized its efforts to exhibit modern art and to educate the public about it as well as the press's response to such efforts.

Researchers are advised to consult documents in both of these Subseries in order to access the most complete documentation on a subject. Similarly, for any exhibition or event pre-dating 1970, researchers are urged to consult Series I-The Public Information Scrapbooks-for the most comprehensive collection of clippings.

Subseries C is 3 linear feet of documentation regarding Museum staff and members of the Board of Trustees. The records include biographical information and portrait photographs.

Administrative Information

Provenance

The records were created and compiled by The Museum of Modern Art's Department of Communications. The department has been known as such since 1994. From the time of the department's creation in 1933 until the 1960s, it was known as the Department of Publicity and from then until 1994, it was the Department of Public Information.

Series II was accessioned into the Museum Archives via internal transfer from the Department of Communications, 1989-2001.

Processing and Condition

The Public Information scrapbooks were originally assembled by the Museum's Publicity Department, now known as the Departments of Communications and Marketing. In 1973, the Museum received an NEA grant to selectively microfiche the scrapbooks. At that time the scrapbooks, presumably originally arranged in order of receipt of clippings, were taken apart and rearranged according to exhibitions shown at the Museum. When parts of the scrapbooks were microfiched, the scrapbook to which the individual microfiche refers was not indicated, and no inventory was prepared.

In 1975, the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) rejected an application to index the project. Since no inventory or index had been prepared, it was impossible to use the scrapbooks efficiently. The microfiche bears no useful relation to the scrapbooks for the historian or researcher and access to the scrapbooks themselves is risky due to their condition. The scrapbook sheets are extremely brittle and have a high wood pulp content, onto which newspaper and magazine clippings of a highly acidic nature have been mounted with rubber cement or animal glue. Each time a scrapbook is handled, sheets break at the spine, leaving this material vulnerable to further damage through handling. Furthermore, unstable film was used and the microfiche is now only barely legible. The scrapbooks were transferred to The Museum of Modern Art Archives from the Library in the summer of 1990 in this inaccessible condition. In 1993, the Museum received an NEH grant to microfilm these scrapbooks, a project completed in April 1995, and the originals are no longer available for consultation.

In 2002, the Getty Grant Program generously funded the processing of Series II, further records compiled by the museum's publicity department.
