To celebrate American Archives Month, we’re throwing back to an exhibition from our Teenie Harris Archive!

Including projects from Brazil, Chile, and Colombia, CMOA’s 2016 exhibition Building Optimism: Public Space in South America investigated ways that emerging architects and designers instigate change through design in public space.

This Throwback Thursday we are taking it back to 2014 when CMOA opened Storyteller, the largest retrospective ever mounted of the work of Duane Michals showcasing 155 different artworks.

Rediscover the fascinating woodblock prints of Hiroshige, who was catapulted to stardom due to the prints’ astounding popularity.
