In honor of MMoA’s year of Art in Common, the Museum invites you to be the curator in People’s Choice, a special, interactive exhibition where the public gets to select which pieces from the permanent collection will be displayed in the Halsey and Liebig Galleries from May 5 – June 4, 2023.
Browse the following categories and select up to five favorite artworks! Choosing is never easy, so feel free to comment on what influenced your choices.
The voting form is listed at the very bottom of this page, below the images for all 100 pieces of MMoA’s permanent collection up for consideration! Hover your cursor over any photograph to see the artist’s name and the work’s title, or click on them to see a larger version!
