On Tuesday, September 9, MoMA hosted a reception to celebrate the opening of three new exhibitions: Here is Every. Four Decades of Contemporary Art (September 10, 2008– March 30, 2009), New Photography 2008: Josephine Meckseper and Mikhael Subotzky (September 10, 2008–January 5, 2009), and Projects 88: Lucy McKenzie (September 10, 2008–December 1, 2008).

Here is Every. Four Decades of Contemporary Art, the fifth in a series of installations in the Museum's second floor Contemporary Galleries, maps a narrative through the art of the recent past and includes works of film, photography, paintings, sculpture, drawing, and video. New Photography is the annual fall showcase of significant recent work in contemporary photography. This year's exhibition features the work of Josephine Meckseper and Mikhael Subotzky. For Projects 88, Lucy McKenzie, with the help of fashion designer Beca Lipscombe and illustrator Bernie Reid, has transformed a gallery into a room that emulates the décor of a turn-of-the-century library to display McKenzie's paintings and prints that were recently acquired by the Museum.

Guests included artists  Tanyth Berkeley, Mikhael Subotzky, Josephine Meckseper, Lucy McKenzie, Peter Doig, and Corban Walker. Other distinguished guests included Agnes Gund, Janet Wallach, Robert Menschel, and Ann Temkin.
