The Modern and Contemporary Art wing at the Met is devoted to the study, collection and exhibition of art from 1890 to the present. An era marked by seismic cultural, social and political shifts across the globe, artistic responses to these changes have shaped multiple modernities and diverse contemporary practices. In 2012, the wing intentionally began to expand and diversify its collection that had historically focused on the art of Western Europe and North America. Now inclusive of more works by women and artists of color, with particular emphasis on acquisitions from Latin America, South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, Turkey, and African diasporas, the wing spans a range of media, including paintings, sculpture, works on paper, design, decorative arts, and time-based media. This visit will not repeat any works shown during the October 2024 tour.
