On March 18, 2016, The Metropolitan Museum of Art opened The Met Breuer, a space dedicated to modern and contemporary art. The landmark building was originally designed by the great Bauhaus architect Marcel Breuer for The Whitney Museum of American Art.
The Met began collecting photographs in 1928, when Alfred Stieglitz, a passionate advocate of photography as a fine art, made the first of several important gifts to the Museum.
