Out of Time: Contemporary Art from the Collection of MoMA New York

So I may be getting a little obsessive about finding art exhibits on the web, because now I'm determined to track down an online exhibit that was easier to get around back in 2006 when I first started this post. MoMA New York had a good online exhibit for the "Out of Time" show back then but when they revised their site it got a bit fragmented.

The real exhibit got a negative review in the New York Times, for the most part, in Roberta Smith's Power, Injustice, Death, Loss: At Sea in the Here and Now.

It is still easy to switch back and forth between the review, and a view of the critiqued pieces in the exhibit. I found it easiest to do this by going to the "Selected works" page and finding the artwork from there. Then I could see the work that was being described and see if I agreed with the review. Most of the works shown here have text about the work in the show and then links to other works by the artist.

Some of the images had an audio file attached in 2006, but now those six files are found in another exhibition page which has a picture of the art work being discussed. Oddly, the piece by Rachel Whiteread, Untitled (Paperbacks), has a picture of Jeff Koons' work but the correct picture can be found in "Selected works" along with a transcript of her talk.

So, the exhibit is still on the web; it just takes some doing to put it all together.
