MoMA Collection - Artists Born Abroad


Counts of Foreign-Born Artists Represented in MoMA's art collection.


This visualization focuses on the distribution of artists not born in the United States. The Big Four, Germany, England, France, and Italy, are the most represented birthplaces of artists. While, almost the entire African continent is apparently severely underepresented.
