In the late 1920s, three patrons of the arts, Miss Lillie P. Bliss, Mr. Cornelius J. Sullivan, and Mr. John D. Rockefeller, perceived a need to challenge the conservative policies of traditional museums and to establish an institution devoted exclusively to modern art. They created The Museum of Modern Art in 1929. Its founding director, Alfred H. Barr Jr. intended the Museum to be dedicated to help people understand and enjoy the visual arts of our time, and that it might provide New York with “the greatest museum of modern art in the world.”
The rich and varied collection of The Museum of Modern Art constitutes one of the most comprehensive and panoramic views into modern art. From an initial gift of eight prints and one drawing, The Museum of Modern Art’s collection has grown to approximately 200,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, media and performance art works, architectural models and drawings, design objects, and films. MoMA also owns approximately two million film stills. The Museum’s Library and Archives maintain a study center available to students, scholars, and researchers. MoMA’s Library holds over 320,000 items. The Museum Archives contains primary source material related to the history of MoMA and modern and contemporary art.
