4. H H ISTORY T he idea for The Museum of Modern Art was developed in 1929 by a group of determinate women called “the Ladies”, formed by Abby Aldrich Rockfeller, Lillie P. Bliss, and Mary Quinn Sullivan. They rented significant quarters for the museum in the Heckscher Building at 730 Fifth Avenue, and it opened to the public on November 7, 1929. From 1983 on, the Museum has more than doubled its surface, building a new glass wall gallery space in Astoria in New York City, which include an innovative sculpture garden, free to the public.
