MOMA held an exhibition from March 2 to May 12, 2008 entitled Color Chart: Reinventing Color from 1950 to Today.

The exhibition, according to Ann Temkin, “takes as its point of departure the commercial color chart” and features the work of 44 artists who “take a position in which art and life mingle rather than remain separate, and where beauty is found in the everyday rather than in the ideal.”

In a stunning flash presentation, viewers can browse the featured artwork by artist, medium or position on the timeline from 1950 to today.

You’ll see work by Andy Warhol, Richard Serra, Frank Stella, Gerhard Richter and more. You’ll find everything from bitmap drawing and prints to vivid photographs and intricate wall drawings.
