In our latest online edition of MoMA’s ArtSpeaks program, a member of our staff shares personal impressions of an artwork in the galleries. Here, Alaina Boukedes, a guest specialist in the Department of Visitor Engagement, talks about the “unpredictability” of her favorite piece in the Museum, Philippe Parreno’s installation Echo: “She’s always talking, she’s always interacting...she’s never the same.”
Explore our collection work by work as we release a new video each Friday. Watch the videos and then come visit the works in person at MoMA!
