Moderno y Metamoderno: Edici\u00f3n 70 Aniversario [Moderno and Metamoderno: 70th Anniversary Edition] is an ambitious exhibition of the museum\u2019s collection displayed over three large rooms on the First Floor, allowing visitors to appreciate the history and scope of the largest public collection of modern and contemporary Argentinian art in the country. Featuring more than 300 works selected from a collection of over 8,000 pieces, the exhibition offers a diverse and comprehensive overview of Argentinian art movements while reflecting the research, exhibition and publication processes that have established the Museo Moderno as a leading-edge institution.<\/p>

As part of the museum\u2019s 2026 focus on the relationships between art, design, nature, architecture and urbanism, <\/span>Moderno y MetaModerno<\/span><\/i> incorporates a selection of emblematic pieces from the museum\u2019s Argentinian design collection. Design has been part of the Museo Moderno\u2019s curatorial programme since the 1970s, recognising it as essential to Argentina\u2019s material culture and the projection of new ideas of modernity. The Moderno\u2019s important design collection was established during the directorship of Laura Buccellato, with significant assistance from renowned Argentinian designer Ricardo Blanco as curator.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

MetaModerno<\/span><\/i> unfolds as a \u2018meta-exhibition\u2019 where each work on display is transformed into a portal that opens by scanning a QR code, leading the viewer to an extensive digital archive, constructed over the past decade, that documents past exhibitions at the Moderno and the research, publications and press articles that accompanied them. It is an affirmation that art is indeed an important vehicle for knowledge.<\/span><\/p>

The assembled works reflect the history of the formation of this public collection, from the pioneering acquisitions of the first directors Rafael Squirru and Hugo Parpagnoli, the Ignacio Pirovano Collection and the legacy of the artist Alberto Heredia, to the more than 700 acquisitions and donations obtained under Moderno\u2019s current administration. The participation of various actors from civil society has been key throughout the process, including: artists and their families, galleries, patrons and the Acquisitions Committee, the Asociaci\u00f3n Amigos del Moderno [Friends of the Moderno Association] and the Buenos Aires City Government itself. Thanks to all this crucial support, the Museo Moderno continues to write a more accurate, inclusive, pluralistic history of Argentinian art.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
