Curators' Choices

To mark the September 11 anniversary, curators in many of the Metropolitan's departments selected works of art from their permanent collections that they feel express humankind's indomitable spirit. Located throughout the Museum, the works represent every culture and every time in history, and communicate the universal emotions of despair and hope, mourning and recovery, loss and renewal. A full, annotated list of these works was made available at the Museum's Information Desks during the week of September 1015, as a guide to their location and meaning.
In addition, the Curators' Choices are presented online in approximate chronological order. To view the works of art, select an image below or begin with the Pair Statue of Memi and Sabu.
