His genius for installation design and display, documented in elaborate preparatory drawings he created at each step of his process, guided a methodology that has informed how exhibitions are organized to this day. In \u003cem\u003eRené d'Harnoncourt and the Art of Installation\u003c\/em\u003e, Michelle Elligott examines d'Harnoncourt's life and work, delving deep into the Museum's archives to demonstrate his mastery of exhibition presentation, from his first curatorial effort—an exploration of Mexico' indigenous arts, which circulated throughout the United States in the early 1930s—to \u003cem\u003eThe Sculpture of Picasso\u003c\/em\u003e, his final, most elaborate installation at MoMA, in 1967. Through exhibition photographs and d'Harnoncourt's exquisite, rarely seen sketches, this book reveals a unique approach to exhibitions and the fascinating personality behind it. 176 pp.; 204 illus.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MUSEUM OF MODERN ART 700003","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44170110730470,"sku":"900050-900050","price":7700.0,"currency_code":"JMD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/7962\/2630\/files\/900050_a_d57c19f8-873c-4e03-be19-8aec32d456a4.jpg?v=1704232808","url":"https:\/\/store.moma.org\/en-jm\/products\/rene-d-harnoncourt-and-the-art-of-installation-hardcover","provider":"MoMA Design Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
