Hanging beside it in Gallery 404: Untitled, No Shade but His Shade

A virtual MoMA

Built by Nancy Wang. This is an unofficial project and is not affiliated with the Museum of Modern Art.

Every room here is compiled from MoMA's own open data rather than modelled by hand: the floor plans are traced from the museum's published maps, the galleries carry their real numbers, and each work hangs where the collection says it hangs. The art, the wall labels and the dates all come from MoMA's CC0 release, so the museum you walk through is as close to the real one as public data allows.

Which also means it drifts. Rehangs happen, and this cannot see them.
