Join ArtTable NY for an after hours visit to the newly renovated galleries of the Museum of Modern Art with Ann Temkin, The Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture. 

Ann Temkin assumed the role of Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture in 2008, after joining The Museum of Modern Art in 2003 as Curator. During her tenure, Ms. Temkin has focused especially on the acquisitions program of the Department of Painting and Sculpture, and on reimagining the Museum’s collection galleries. The acquisitions program has followed a three-pronged approach: to strengthen the holdings of landmark works by modern artists whom the Museum collects in depth; to widen its breadth with works by historical artists new to the department’s collection, especially women, artists of African descent, and artists working outside of Europe and North America; and to collect actively from the new generation of artists working today.

Ms. Temkin is currently preparing an exhibition of the work of Donald Judd (2020). Her exhibitions at MoMA include Studio Visit: Selected Gifts from Agnes Gund (2018), Picasso Sculpture (2015), Robert Gober: The Heart Is Not a Metaphor (2014), Jasper Johns: Regrets (2014), Ileana Sonnabend: Ambassador for the New (2013), Ellsworth Kelly: Chatham Series (2013), Claes Oldenburg: The Street and The Store and Mouse Museum/Ray Gun Wing (2013), Abstract Expressionist New York (2010), Gabriel Orozco (2009), and Color Chart: Reinventing Color, 1950 to Today (2008).
