May 10, 2009 - May 02, 2010

SFMOMA's skyward sculpture garden showcases well-known and recently acquired works from the museum's collection. Sculptures spanning the last five decades by artists such as Robert Arneson, Louise Bourgeois, Alexander Calder, Ellsworth Kelly, Mario Merz, Barnett Newman, Ranjani Shettar, and Kiki Smith are featured in both open-air and enclosed spaces.

The Rooftop Garden will close on May 3 and reopen June 25 with a selection of sculptures from the Fisher Collection. The indoor pavilion and Rooftop Coffee Bar will remain open during this period, except for May 3 through 7, May 12 through 14, June 1, and June 7 through 11, when all three areas will be closed.


The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art's Rooftop Garden is made possible through the generous support of the following leadership gifts: the Mimi and Peter Haas Fund, Barbara and Gerson Bakar, the Jean and James Douglas Family, Patricia and William Wilson III, and Carolyn and Preston Butcher.
