In 2015, the New Museum and MIT Press co-published the first volume in a new anthologies series titled Critical Anthologies in Art and Culture. This series revived the seminal collection of volumes on key cultural topics initiated in 1984 by the New Museum and the MIT Press, which produced six defining volumes on the field of contemporary art. The new series, overseen by Johanna Burton, Keith Haring Director and Curator of Education and Public Engagement at the New Museum, builds on this historic partnership to provide a platform for today’s most pressing issues in contemporary culture.
