Looking Forward, Looking Back
Recent Acquisitions in 20th- and 21st-Century Design
On view: August 17-October 11, 2007
With more than 250,000 works, Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum has one of the most comprehensive collections of design objects in the United States. Through our collection, we explore the continuum of design across multiple centuries, up to the present day. We continue to expand the scope and quality of the collection through new acquisitions and, in the past three years, have made a priority of enhancing our twentieth-century and contemporary collection while complementing our holdings from earlier periods.
