The International Program supports The Museum of Modern Art by maintaining a worldwide network of scholars, artists, curators, and arts institutions. The Museum established the department in 1952 with the aim of sending exhibitions from its collection to venues around the world. Beginning in the later 1990s, the International Program was reorganized to address global art perspectives through research-driven programs. These now include the Primary Documents series of publications; the International Curatorial Institute, an annual two-week learning intensive; and the internal research initiative C-MAP (Contemporary and Modern Art Perspectives). In the increasingly collaborative, global context of art museums today, the International Program seeks to build a dynamic future for the Museum through these streams, actively fostering learning, critical discourse, and exchange that address museological, curatorial, and artistic practices around the world. Working across the Museum’s departments, C-MAP invites international guests to conduct workshops at MoMA and organizes group travel abroad for MoMA staff. Since 2013, C-MAP has shared its research on post, an online platform devoted to art and the history of modern and contemporary art in a global context.
