All Smithsonian museums in Washington, D.C., including the National Zoo, and in New York City continue to be closed to support the effort to contain the spread of COVID-19.
The Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture garden displays international modern and contemporary art in a celebrated Gordon Bunshaft-designed cylindrical building, adjoining Plaza, and sunken Sculpture Garden across Jefferson Drive. The museum offers an in-depth collection of modern masters and emerging artists; cutting-edge films; outdoor sculptures by Auguste Rodin, Alberto Giacometti, Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, Beverly Pepper, Jeff Koons, and Yoko Ono; temporary exhibitions highlighting major artists, important trends, and historical developments; and ARTLAB+, a radically inclusive digital media studio for local teens.
An active acquisitions program continually adds work to the collection in all media, with an emphasis on new work and the work of artists exhibiting at and collaborating with the museum as well as global modernism.
