The Major Exhibition #alexandercalder: Modern from the Start has been Extended by Popular Demand

NEW YORK, June 30, 2021—As The Museum of Modern Art welcomes visitors to experience its world-class collection galleries and exhibitions this summer, it will continue to offer extended hours on Saturdays until 7:00 p.m. #moma has resumed in-person film
screenings, including Thursday-evening outdoor screenings in the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden from July 8 through August 26 and matinee screenings in the Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 1; Virtual Cinema screenings will also continue online. And, by popular demand, the Museum is pleased to announce the extension of the landmark exhibition #alexandercalder: Modern from the Start through January 15, 2022.

In addition to Calder, this summer’s exhibitions include Cézanne Drawing (through September 25), the first major effort in the United States to unite drawings, sketchbooks, and rarely seen watercolors from across the artist’s entire career; Automania (July 4, 2021–January 2, 2022), investigating cars and car culture in the 20th century and showcasing a total of nine cars from the Museum’s collection in the third-floor galleries and the Sculpture Garden; and Fotoclubismo: Brazilian Modernist Photography, 1946–1964 (through September 26), the first museum exhibition outside of Brazil to focus on the unforgettable creative achievements of São Paulo’s Foto-Cine Clube Bandeirante.

In the Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Studio, Sung Hwan Kim’s Temper Clay, a multimedia installation highlighting the Korean artist’s single-channel video work, is on view through July 18, followed by Shigeko Kubota: Liquid Reality (August 21, 2021–January 2, 2022), the first solo presentation of the Japanese artist’s work at a US museum in 25 years, featuring six sculptural video works. In the Roy and Niuta Titus and Morita galleries, Neelon Crawford: Filmmaker (July 24–spring 2022) is the first museum gallery exhibition of moving-image works by the multimedia artist and a timely meditation on climate crisis and sustainability, featuring eight newly restored films.

In the Museum’s ever-evolving collection galleries, over 250 works have recently been installed throughout 30 galleries on the second, fourth, and fifth floors. Newly added works now on view include Paul Chan’s 1st Light, Edgar Heap of Birds’s Surviving Active Shooter Custer, William H.
