After a two-year redesign by Japanese architect Yoshio Taniguchi, MoMA reopened in 2004 with almost double the space to display some of the most impressive artworks from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. The museum’s permanent collection now encompasses seven curatorial departments: Architecture and Design, Drawings, Film, Media, Painting and Sculpture, Photography, and Prints and Illustrated Books. Highlights include Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, Dalí’s The Persistence of Memory and Van Gogh’s The Starry Night, as well as masterpieces by Giacometti, Hopper, Matisse, Monet, O’Keefe, Pollock, Rothko, Warhol and many others. Outside, the Philip -Johnson–designed Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden contains works by Calder, Rodin and Moore.
