MoMA’s Film Stills Archive Still Shuttered – Why?

Ten years ago, the Museum of Modern Art shut its Film Stills Archive while it renovated its Manhattan building, promising to reopen the archive when the museum had more space. More space arrived in 2005, but the archive’s still shut – and an old labor dispute may be at the heart of it all. “What bothers me is that there’s no conscience, no morality to what they’ve done. There’s no making a wrong right here.”
