Neal Benezra, director of San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), talks about the history of the institution with regards to its upcoming expansion. Benezra tells the story of his journey to find the architects who designed the expansion and explains the thinking behind the vision for the building.

This talk featured as part of the ‘William Kentridge: Five Themes’ exhibition public programs events. The exhibition was originally curated by SFMOMA in 2009 and has since travelled to New York, Paris, Vienna, Jerusalem and Moscow.
