We are excited to celebrate the recent acquisitions of Chromie Squiggles and CryptoPunks into @MuseumModernArt's permanent collection.

We are all profoundly grateful to the artists and collectors who supported this important donation, uniting the collective generosity of this amazing community. MoMA has been championing transformative art of the modern era for nearly a century and remains at the vanguard as we peer into the digital frontier.

Thank you to @ArtOnBlockchain, @CozomoMedici, @gmoneyNFT, @jdh, @judithESSS, @kukulabanze, @larvalabs, @NTmoney, @Rhyd0n, @squiggleDAO, and @VonMises14 for your profound generosity, as well as to MoMA’s Stuart Comer & Michelle Kuo for their extraordinary support and curatorial vision.

Refik Anadol: "There is also a professional tension embedded in this – I genuinely believe I am only ever as good as my next project. It is a demanding inner algorithm that ensures each new endeavor is more challenging than the last."

They said photography wasn’t art.
They said cinema wasn’t art.
They said video games weren’t art.
Now they say AI arts/digital art isn’t art.

I’ve spent over a decade with my studio team turning millions of data points into living, breathing artwork experiences ethically — at MoMA, at the Guggenheim, at the Venice Biennale. Not because a machine told me what to create, but because I had a vision that no traditional tool could realize.

Denying all AI technologies as an artistic medium doesn’t protect art. It limits it. The artists who embrace new tools don’t replace the old masters — they join them.

Art is not defined by the brush. It’s defined by the intention, the emotion, and the courage to see the world differently.

Glenn Lowry: "[Anadol] wrote some algorithms that allowed the data from one object to evolve into the data of another object to become yet a third object or a fourth object never before seen... people found it deeply satisfying."

When you think about the way art is created, you might imagine painters, photographers, or sculptors immersed in their work at their studios. But what about a person sitting in front of a computer screen using artificial intelligence and data to create visuals. Is that art? cbsn.ws/46OFUB2

In 2024, in an attempt to understand the cognitive and emotional resonance of @refikanadol's UNSUPERVISED, scientists equipped visitors to MoMA with EEG headsets, capturing the precise neurobiological signature of an aesthetic encounter.

Aesthetic encounters refer to intense, self-reported states of deep attention, focus, and a temporary loss of self-awareness experienced by visitors while engaging with the artwork. These are moments where individuals become fully immersed in the artistic experience.

How did visitors react to a work of AI art at New York’s Museum of Modern Art? “It was an utterly extraordinary hit,” says Glenn Lowry, who was MoMA's director at the time of the exhibit. cbsn.ws/4qU9PPF
