The Hyundai Card Performance Series
Experience live art—from performance, to music, sound, and spoken word, to expanded approaches to the moving image—in the heart of our galleries.

The Hyundai Card Performance Series provides a key platform for artists experimenting with new art forms, building on MoMA’s history in supporting and presenting live and media art. Throughout the year, this series activates the Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Studio—a unique, dedicated space for performance within the Museum’s fourth-floor collection galleries—with commissions, festivals, residencies, installations, workshops, and more.
Explore our current season below, and join us for up-close, unforgettable experiences with artists who are breaking new ground in experimental media and performance.
The Hyundai Card Performance Series is organized by Stuart Comer, The Lonti Ebers Chief Curator of Media and Performance; Ana Janevski, Curator; Martha Joseph, The Phyllis Ann and Walter Borten Assistant Curator of Media and Performance; Thomas (T.) Jean Lax, Curator; Erica Papernik-Shimizu, Associate Curator, Department of Media and Performance; and Sophie Cavoulacos, Associate Curator, Department of Film; with May Makki, Curatorial Assistant, and Lilia Rocio Taboada, Curatorial Assistant, Department of Media and Performance. Produced by Lizzie Gorfaine, Associate Director and Producer, and Kate Scherer, Manager and Producer; with Jessie Gold, Aminah Ibrahim, Olivia Rousey, and Kayva Yang, Assistant Performance Coordinators, and Nora Chellew, Production Assistant, Performance and Live Programs.
Media and Performance at MoMA is made possible by Hyundai Card.
