The museum of Modern Art, their bio

"At The Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1, we celebrate creativity, openness, tolerance, and generosity. We aim to be inclusive places—both onsite and online—where diverse cultural, artistic, social, and political positions are welcome. We’re committed to sharing the most thought-provoking modern and contemporary art, and hope you will join us in exploring the art, ideas, and issues of our time." Source

The aim of this project

In this project, I visualized where MoMA acquired their works. I looked at the years 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995, 2005, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Since this museum is one of world's leading museum in exhibiting contemporary art, it is important to know where they acquired their works. They aim to be inclusive and to be a place where cultural diversity is celebrated, I questioned this with this project.
