Visiting MoMA PS1
Established in 1966 under Mayor John V. Lindsay, the Mayor's Office of Film, Theater, and Broadcasting promotes New York City as a location for filming and assists filmmakers with all aspects of production in New York City. Under Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and Commissioner Katherine Oliver, the City created the Made in NY program, which celebrates and provides incentives for entertainment production in New York City. Over the last forty years an astonishing number of significant and influential feature films that have become part of American popular culture have been made in New York. This four-month exhibition, drawn primarily from the Museums collection, celebrates New Yorks and the Mayor's Offices contributions to modern American cinema.
Organized by Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, and Leigh Goldstein, Executive Assistant, Department of Film. Special thanks to Columbia Pictures and Paramount Pictures.
