An exhibit chronicling the work of celebrated filmmaker and all around-creative Tim Burton is running at the MoMA New York through April 2010.

The speakers at this year’s Idea Conference shared their views on business innovation.

For its 57th issue, Visionaire draws inspiration from the Smart Fortwo car.

The Afterparty is the latest project from MOS architects, Hillary Sample and Michael Meredith.  It is the latest installation at the Museum of Modern Art’s P.S.1 in Queens and is made completely of recycled aluminum with a palm thatch covering.  The domes and basic arches are meant to cool the courtyard through the stack effect and utilizes a more primitive state of architecture.

In a brief video discussion with visitors (view below), one commented on the unique interior view compared to the rough outside and another felt it was something out of Planet of the Apes.  Either way, the unique environment [...]

With their takeover of the entire Atlantic-Pacific subway station earlier this year, the MoMA re-imagined the role of art in people’s lives, replacing ads with reproductions of pieces from their permanent collection. By removing the barriers of the museum environment and placing the works in the context of the public sphere, a wider audience was granted access that they otherwise might not have. And while at its core, the effort may have been one giant (repackaged) advertisement for the museum, the end result offered viewers so much more.
Now in a new short film directed by Azazel Jacobs titled I See, [...]

In the Talking Heads song Nothing but Flowers David Byrne describes a dystopian future where plants and vegetation have overpowered all the machinations of modern society- “There was a shopping mall, Now it’s all covered with flowers”.  It’s easy to be reminded of this phrase when viewing Patrick Blanc’s vertical garden installations, in which the artist turns the sides of ordinary builds and bridges into a lush wall of living plants. Blanc, a botanist for the CNRS turned artist, has perfected a growth technique which involves using a system of slats on the sides of buildings to hold them in [...]

Yesterday morning, on the way to the office, we noticed something was pleasantly different about the Museum of Modern Art’s temporary display inside the Atlantic Avenue subway station. It seems (from the looks of the artwork) that Poster Boy and Aakash Nihalani had worked their magic overnight, and transformed several of the MoMA’s art reproductions into new pieces. Classic works of art were remixed with samples from advertising and cut-outs of other pieces. Aakash Nihalani also spruced up the MoMA’s advertisements and added some nice colored tape boxes in strategic spots around the station.
Unfortunately, as of last night most of [...]

The Museum of Modern Art has put up a temporary museum annex inside the large Atlantic Pacific subway station in Brooklyn, New York. Throughout the complex, reproductions of the MoMA’s collection have been placed along platforms and passageways for anyone to view 24/7.
PSFK went to check out this pop up gallery, and found it to be a welcome addition to the station, adding a sense of place to what would normally be a space to be rushed though on the way to somewhere else. Subway riders entering the station displayed looks of confusion which morphed into expressions of delight as [...]
