Ah, autumn in New York\u2014it’s so inviting! Particularly at the Museum of Modern Art<\/a>, where the cooler months bring a spectacular lineup of new exhibits<\/a>, from\u00a0surrealist books and pioneering photographers\u00a0to environmental art. Here’s a look at the show we’re most excited about at MoMA in the next coming weeks and month.<\/p>\n

September:<\/p>\n

The fall exhibition season begins September 15 with\u00a0Sarah Michelson: nowhere, a performance exhibition that takes over the Donald B. and Catherine C. Marron Atrium. The acclaimed choreographer and dancer will perform during regular museum hours alongside a rotating cast of dancers, essentially turning a trip to MoMA into an ongoing piece of live art. The exhibition runs through October 11.<\/p>\n

On September 20,\u00a0Taking Back Our Space: Photographic Perspectives\u00a0opens, bringing together\u00a0Marianne Wex’s photographic examination of the ways in which women take up space in public with contemporary artists’ works.\u00a0It runs through May 2, 2027.<\/p>\n

September 27 is a particularly busy day at MoMA.\u00a0Full Disclosure: The Edge of Information Design\u00a0explores the ways designers turn enormous amounts of data into something humans can actually understand, from maps and charts to the increasingly complicated visual language of algorithms, machine learning and AI. It runs through June 13, 2027.<\/p>\n

That same day brings\u00a0Nilima Sheikh: Fractured Skies, a major presentation of the Indian artist’s work, also running through June 13, 2027. Sheikh is known for paintings that weave together landscape, history, poetry and political memory.<\/p>\n

\nOctober:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then October gets surreal\u00a0with the October 4 opening of\u00a0The Surrealist Book: Tomorrow Lives in Mirrors, which\u00a0examines the strange, beautiful and often deliberately confounding books created by Surrealist artists. The exhibition runs through January 23, 2027.<\/p>\n

If you’d rather have your art experience feel like you’ve wandered into another ecosystem, Jakob Kudsk Steensen: Wetland opens October 12. The Danish artist’s immersive work explores wetlands and ecological systems through digital media, creating an environment that sits somewhere between contemporary art installation and extremely sophisticated nature documentary. It runs through March 7, 2027.<\/p>\n

And then comes the fall’s big name with\u00a0Brancusi: The Artist and His Studio. Opening October 25, the exhibition\u00a0includes rarely loaned works from the\u00a0Centre Pompidou\u2019s collection in Paris\u00a0along with pieces from MoMA’s own extensive collection. It runs through February 27, 2027.<\/p>\n

November:\u00a0<\/p>\n

November brings Na Mira: NO SMOKING, opening November 14 and running through February 15, 2027.\u00a0For the exhibition, her first solo show in New York,\u00a0Mira is developing a newly commissioned media installation, creating footage at sites of personal and historical significance through a process guided by “chance and desire.”<\/p>\n
