Hey culture vultures, you can now get a dose of a museum visit from your laptop! The MoMA (Museum of Modern Art to the Luddite) has just gone live with the first online art exhibit, and its theme is color.
Color Chart is an all-online exhibit of modern artists from 1918 to 2008 who interpreted color in different and innovative ways. The works of greats like Andy Warhol, Marcel Duchamp, and Ellsworth Kelly make up this online composition that forces new appreciation of them — like any good exhibit can do.
As a geek, I can really appreciate the setup of the website — it's aesthetically pleasing and achingly easy to navigate through the works. The quality of the work, combined with the high resolution, makes me feel cultured, and also absolved for watching that Newport Harbor marathon.

very cool! i actually just visited the MOMA on Friday, and it will be nice to see more art from the museum - minus traveling the thousands of miles to see it = )
1Thanks Geek! I love anything MoMA!
2That looks awesome, I'll definitely be checking it out.
3I absolutely love this website! Color really influences my mood so it's great to see exhibitions dedicated to it. Also, the layout is brilliant and the site looks awesome!
I particularly liked John Baldessari's work (1976 & 1977). They are original and the colors he used work well together.
Thanks Geeksugar!
4This is very cool. MOMA did a great job with the graphics.
5I love looking at this site. Can't wait to share this with my friends!
6Very cool. Thank you Geeksugar.
I'm happy to see Ellsworth Kelly included in this list. His artwork influenced a whole generation of modern designers.
