Avatar photo by Natalie Haddad May 19, 2018May 18, 2018

Avatar photo by Natalie Haddad December 9, 2017December 8, 2017

Ephemera provides an important history lesson, especially for a war that is disappearing from America’s collective memory, but the most affective works in World War I and the Visual Arts are those that convey the pathos of the war experience.

What You Might Be Missing at MoMA

Avatar photo by Thomas Micchelli November 3, 2012November 3, 2012

You’d never find Pablo Picasso or Jackson Pollock relegated to the corridors of the Museum of Modern Art. Rarely do artists deemed essential to MoMA’s historical narrative rub elbows with the throngs swarming the escalators and passageways in endless transit from galleries to café to restroom and back.
