List of video games in the Museum of Modern Art

A number of video games were selected by the Museum of Modern Art, located in New York City, as part of its permanent collection.

[4] However, the collection is modeled after Philip Johnson’s 1934 exhibition "Machine Art," in which pieces of machinery such as propeller blades were displayed in a minimalist fashion to lay focus on their mechanical design.

[5] In order to minimize factors such as nostalgia, the games are displayed in a minimalist fashion where only a screen and controlling-device are visible on an otherwise blank wall.

[6] The exhibition is part of a movement to include forms beyond traditional media that the Museum of Modern Art began in 2006, starting with digital fonts and later moving on to video games.

MoMA has taken cautious care of traffic flow within the exhibit, placing games that are likely to be heavily played (such as Pac-Man) near entrances and exits.
