This catalogue is published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same title, organised by The Museum of Modern Art, New York in association with Mori Art Museum, Tokyo from 28 April to 1 August 2004. It features works drawn from The Museum of Modern Art's synoptic holdings including architecture, design, photography, film, and video, as well as more traditional media such as painting, sculpture, drawings, and prints. Organised around four broadly chronological themes, the exhibition reveals that history is fluid and that ideas rooted in one period have endured and remained vital impulses throughout the modern era. Artists' biographies are included.
