MoMA: Inventing Abstraction 1910–1925

Starting from the premise that abstraction in art was not "the inspiration of a solitary genius," this website from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) features a network map of the connections of over 80 artists. Starting from the alphabetical list of artists, select any artist's name to be taken to their individual entry and their small network. An arrow takes you back to the larger network map. Some artists, highlighted in orange, are network hubs with many of connections going in all directions. These include Tristan Tzara, Alfred Stieglitz, Francis Picabia, and others. Their wider connections were typically built because, in addition to creating art work of their own, these artists also wrote and published, spoke publicly, organized events, and owned galleries. A checklist of the exhibition is provided, along with a downloadable network map.
