MOCA quietly launches online exhibition archive

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.
