The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) is without doubt the world’s most famous modern art gallery and design museum. The museum was founded by Aldrich Rockefeller (wife of John D. Rockefeller Jr) and her friends Lillie P. Bliss and Mary Quinn Sullivan. The museum opened to the public on November 7, 1929, seven days after the Wall Street crash. MoMA’s store commissions designers to produce original products and also sells items that have been added to the museum’s permanent collection.
