  • Great Collection but ebook could be better

    Good material but not the best ebook. The material seems to be organized chronologically (sort of) combining paintings, photography, decorative arts, film, etc. It makes it a little bit confusing and choppy. The iBooks Author platform does not make the best ebook experience yet. I would expect a better design from MoMA - the type of the captions in the introduction is too similar to the text; the pictures in the contents pages of each chapter are haphazard; etc. The MoMA Abstract Expressionists app is brilliant. Unfortunately, this ebook (again, though it has fantastic material) could be better.
