Inventing Abstraction: Last Chance to See How a Radical Idea Changed Modern Art

Anyone who has not made it to MoMA to see the landmark exhibition, Inventing Abstraction, 1910-1925: How a Radical Idea Changed Modern Art, has one last chance this weekend. Run, do not walk, to see this universally acclaimed show, curated by Leah Dickerman to span all media—including painting, drawing, print publication, sculpture, film, photography, sound poetry, atonal music and non-narrative dance—which The New York Times' Roberta Smith called "a marvel of a diagram, a creative circuitry variously visual, aural and kinetic, whose radiating lines yield new sights and insights at every juncture." Featured image, Marsden Hartley's "Painting, Number 5" (1914-15), is reproduced from MoMA's equally essential exhibition catalog.
