Santa Monica Museum of Art
The Santa Monica Museum of Art (SMMoA) is an independent art museum located in Santa Monica, California. It exhibits the work of local, national, and international contemporary artists. SMMoA is the only kunsthalle, or non-collecting museum, in Southern California.
==History==
The Santa Monica Museum of Art was founded in 1984 by Abby Sher as part of the Frank Gehry-designed mixed-use center, Edgemar, which she developed on Main Street in Santa Monica, California between 1984 and 1988. In 1988, Thomas Rhoads was named the museum’s director, mounting that summer its first exhibition, Art in the Raw in the 8,000 square foot clear span, clerestory-rimmed 1908 Imperial Ice Company warehouse building. In 1997, after establishing an international reputation for first-rate exhibitions, SMMoA moved from Edgemar, reopening in Bergamot Station Arts Center in 1998.
SMMoA’s mission focuses on pivotal but under recognized moments and figures in the history of contemporary art and culture. In 2000, former Moore College Gallery Director Elsa Longhauser was appointed executive director. Longhauser marked her arrival with a retrospective of feminist Austrian artist Valie Export, and has continued to champion the city of Los Angeles and the Museum as important players in the ongoing international art dialogue. () She has dedicated SMMoA’s exhibition spaces—a Main Gallery and two Project Rooms—to advancing the work of contemporary local, national, and international artists whose work merits study and recognition.
