See works from Diego Rivera's first NYC exhibition, which took place at the MoMA back in 1931. Yes, sketches and designs from his commissioned (and then destroyed) Rockefeller Center mural, are included in the show. A must-see this season.

MoMA The Museum of Modern Art says…

This exhibition will bring together key works made for Diego Rivera’s 1931 exhibition, presenting them at MoMA for the first time in nearly 80 years. Along with mural panels, the show will include full-scale drawings, smaller working drawings, archival materials related to the commission and production of these works, and designs for Rivera’s famous Rockefeller Center mural, which he also produced while he was working at the Museum. MoMA will be the exhibition’s sole venue.
