    MOMA’s current architects Diller Scofio + Renfro caused an outcry earlier this year when they recommended tearing down the neighboring Folk Art Museum. This shocked fans of the Folk Art Museum, and ruptured a longtime friendship between the architects on the two buildings, prompting some people to suggest the architects should have said no to the commission rather than decimate their friends work. But what about the buildings themselves?

    In Everything Talks, Tom Saunders channels their thoughts, as a line of people formed around the block, waiting to get into MOMA.
