Closing Weekend Countdown Celebration! #sf #sfmoma #art #museum (at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)

THREE. MORE. DAYS!

Our atrium was all aglow last night, looking lovely and filled with energy. Your last chance to visit SFMOMA at night before we close will be this Saturday, when we’ll be open ALL NIGHT LONG through Sunday. There will be a 24-hr live art variety show happening on the Rooftop, so find a hot date and get yourself here! #SFMOMAgo (at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)

I spent most of Memorial Day eating with friends, but here’s a picture of Karen during one of our breaks from food.

We’re gonna miss a lot of things about our building for the next few years while it’s closed for expansion, one of those things being the absolutely gorgeous light that comes in through our oculus. Lovely photo :)

Lynn Hershman Leeson’s Agent Ruby converses with art historian Moria Roth in this recent post on SFMOMA’s Open Space blog. In 2001-2002, SFMOMA commissioned the online project Agent Ruby and since that time, Agent Ruby has conversed with online users, which has shaped her memory, knowledge, and moods. 

The Agent Ruby archives are currently on view at SFMOMA and will close on June 2.

With our Countdown Celebration happening now through Sunday evening, it feels like the perfect time to reflect on our past with this photo of our Botta building under construction in 1993!

Team SFMOMA is ready to see you all today/tomorrow/this weekend at our Countdown Celebration! #SFMOMAgo #stafflove ❤ (at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)

Tomorrow kicks off a four-day celebration at SFMOMA that will kick-off their expansion and launch their off-site programs.

The weekend will culminate with a Farewell Processional on Sunday. Desirée Holman will conduct a series of movements that bridge our present potential to our future tense. Drawing on eccentric histories of time and space, from New Age culture and extraterrestrial encounter to paranormal powers, Holman mobilizes extraordinary characters, costumes, and objects that can make the museum’s and our own futures happen now. Help us bid adieu to our building by joining the processional as it winds its way from the museum’s rooftop down to the atrium and into the world outside.

For more information about this weekend’s festivities visit: Countdown Celebration.

DIY’s Cardboard Village at SFMOMA’s ‘Time to Move’ Event – this Sunday, 6/2/13 11-4 – come build with us!

Join the DIY Team as they build a village in the SFMOMA Koret Education Center connected by pulleys, pipes, and roads for moving time. Families will collaborate on transporting objects from one building in the village to another through systems of their own design. This hands-on activity gives kids a chance to show off their engineering skills and learn from others.
