The reopening commemorates the museum's 75th anniversary and is the most extensive rebuilding and renovation project in MoMA's history. Designed by architect Yoshio Taniguchi, the new museum integrates new construction and renovation to extend and enhance the presentation of the museum's permanent collection as well as its temporary exhibitions. Taniguchi worked closely with the museum's staff over the course of the project to develop a series of reconceived, architecturally distinctive galleries and public spaces that allow MoMA to tell the story of modern and contemporary art in an exciting new context.
Taniguchi's design weaves the building into the urban fabric of New York and reflects the vitality of the city, presenting a unique solution to the density and complexity of a midtown Manhattan site.
