The New Yorker - USA (2020-09-21)

(Antfer) #1
People’s love for New York assumes many forms, from a Frank Sinatra ballad to a Frank O’Hara poem.
The newly reopened MOMA is greeting visitors to its lobby with a big mural of the iconic I NY logo
(seen in closeup, above). It was conceived for a 1977 tourism campaign by the legendary graphic
designer Milton Glaser, who died in June, at the age of ninety-one. To insure a safely reduced capacity,
the museum is making timed tickets available at moma.org; admission is free through Sept. 27.
