Over at Modern Art Notes, Tyler Green reports that the Museum of Contemporary Art has quietly launched its online exhibition archive. The launch couldn’t be more timely as the cash-crunched MOCA wrestles with its fate.

The searchable archive, funded by a grant from the Getty, provides curatorial information as well as images for most of the diverse installations from 1984 to 2004. Remember Paul Schimmel’s 1992 ‘Helter Skelter: LA Art in the 1990s’? ‘At the End of the Century: One Hundred Years of Architecture,’ curated by Richard Koshalek and Elizabeth Smith in 2000? Guest curator Mike Kelley’s ‘Street Credibility’ in 2004?

Take a few minutes to browse the exhibitions and consider MOCA’s vast permanent collection as you prepare notes for the public discussion on Sunday.
