Apple Art: Macs and the iPhone at the SFMOMA

It doesn't take a gadget freak to appreciate the art that technology can be — now I have legitimate art-world backup! San Francisco's Museum of Modern Art has put Mac products from the past and present on display.

Warning: If you're sick of the iPhone, then stay away from the SFMOMA, because the curators have deemed its design an artistic marvel and have featured it prominently, under a glass box (which I have thought about doing, but you know, I needed that whole functionality thing). Also on display is 2000-era Power Mac G4 Cube.

The Apple products are part of the 246 and Counting exhibit, which showcases architectural drawings, furniture, books, and industrial-design products (hence the Apple stuff).

But you didn't have to tell me; I already thought they were beautiful.

    Now that is neat! Its about time they recognized technology and something that should go down in history/ put it in history.

    I am going to be visiting SF next week - I will have to check this exhibit out! I have been using Macs all my life; sometimes it feels like my family owns a Mac museum. Smiling
