The interactive animation section of the Museum’s core exhibition will be reimagined with a special focus on stop-motion-animation director Adam Elliot’s new film Memoir of a Snail.

For MoMI’s Community Curation initiative, a committee of ten curators and collectors nominated a shortlist of boundary-pushing artists for display on the Museum’s Herbert S. Schlosser Media Wall. These artists’ works reflect how personal and cultural histories shape artistic practice.

Waxwing subverts the traditional light gun, a device that allows players to aim and shoot at targets on a video game screen, by reimagining it as a literal source of light, shifting the focus from violence to an exploration of aspirations and the human condition.

This exhibition features videos and artifacts from skate culture’s formative years, with a focus on releases by H-Street, Plan B, World Industries, Girl, and others that defined the modern skate video genre.

On the occasion of Todd Haynes’s May December, MoMI presents an exhibit with materials from the archives of filmmaker Todd Haynes, now part of the Museum’s collection, offering a glimpse into his process of transforming historical and cultural referents into formally ambitious, richly emotional films. 

With material drawn from MoMI’s permanent collection, this exhibit explores the film’s production and makeup design, detailing how a stylish townhouse in Georgetown, Washington, D.C., and an innocent young girl were transformed into sites of horror. 

The Museum's core exhibition immerses visitors in the creative and technical process of producing, promoting, and presenting films, television shows, and digital entertainment.
