This is the official catalog of the classic traveling exhibition jointly planned by Japan's Mori Art Museum and New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), exploring the core meaning of the term "modern" (Modern), from the art revolutions at the end of the 19th century to the diverse evolutions of contemporary creations, revealing the "continuity and change" of modern art through a continuous perspective. The exhibition first debuted at the Mori Art Museum in 2004, featuring landmark works from MoMA's collection, encompassing paintings, sculptures, and installation art by masters such as Van Gogh, Picasso, and Warhol, prompting viewers to reflect: What is "modern"? It is not merely a style, but a mirror of the spirit of the times. The catalog centers on high-resolution color photographs and academic explanations, divided into chapters by timeline, from Impressionism to Abstract Expressionism, then to Pop Art and contemporary installations, supplemented by profound discussions from German curator David Elliott, analyzing how MoMA defines and shapes the global history of modern art.
