Did you know that SFMOMA is expanding, and that starting this June we’ll be closing our current building for 2.5 years?

To contribute, capture your reactions and email photos and videos to SFMOMAsays@sfmoma.org or submit them here with the #SFMOMAgo tag!

Take a break right now and watch this awesome video! In it, artist Chuck Close discusses the ways his work intersects with that of Richard Serra, Sol LeWitt, and composer Philip Glass, and considers the shared interests that emerged as they developed out of the same “primordial ooze.”

Go figure… Ann Hamilton and Annie Liebovitz are old chums.
Annie photographed Ann for a feature on her work that appeared in Vogue in March 1994. The portraits are telling and beautiful, and the story (by writer/curator Neville Wakefield) is worth a read too.
See for yourself here.
We HIGHLY recommend that you all click-through and check out those photos in Vogue— they’re beautiful!
Fun fact: back in 2007, Ann Hamilton installed Indigo Blue, another hugely provocative work, here at SFMOMA. You can see a fascinating time-lapse video of the installation here.
