San Francisco Museum of Modern Art

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art was founded in 1935 as the first museum on the West Coast devoted to 20th-century art. It moved in 1995 into a brick-and-stone building by Mario Botta on Third Street, and in 2016 reopened after a major expansion by Snøhetta that nearly tripled gallery space and added the long-term Doris and Donald Fisher Collection. Its holdings span painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, design, and media arts, with particular strengths in modern American and European art and Bay Area figurative and conceptual practice.

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) is a modern and contemporary art museum and nonprofit organization located in San Francisco, California. SFMOMA was the first museum on the West Coast devoted solely to 20th-century art, and has built an internationally recognized collection with over 33,000 works of painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, design, and media arts. The collection is displayed in 170,000 square feet (16,000 m2) of exhibition space, making the museum one of the largest in the United States overall, and one of the largest in the world for modern and contemporary art. In 2024, SFMOMA was ranked 14th in The Washington Post's list of the best art museums in the U.S. Source: Wikipedia
