Glossolalia: Languages of Drawing | MoMA

Some artists have always functioned beyond the “isms” of art history, following personal and unique paths, sometimes shaped by biography, but just as often informed by devotion to a specific subject matter, medium, or technique. Glossolalia: Languages of Drawing, featuring selected works from MoMA’s drawings collection, reveals the underlying and unexpected links between the works of a diverse group of artists. Ultimately, the exhibition suggests that even amidst iconoclasm, isolation, or the pursuit of invented worlds and obsessions, shared methods can lead to a common visual language. Organized by Connie Butler, The Robert Lehman Foundation Chief Curator of Drawings. In 2018–19, MoMA collaborated with Google Arts & Culture Lab on a project using machine learning to identify artworks in installation photos. That project has concluded, and works are now being identified by MoMA staff. If you notice an error, please contact us at digital@moma.org. If you would like to reproduce an image
