Can artists be taken at their word? Join us as we attempt to answer this question by exploring three modernist movements—Futurism, De Stijl, and Surrealism. Each produced manifestos, but their texts are often difficult and opaque. Through close looking and reading, we’ll evaluate the extent to which their words match up with their images.
Join us for lively conversations and engaging activities, facilitated by Museum educators, that offer insightful and unusual ways to engage with MoMA’s collection and special exhibitions.
Gallery Sessions are free for members and Museum admission ticket holders. No registration is required. Groups meet in the Marron Atrium, Floor 2.
