Verso is a free digital publication about art, culture, and life behind-the-scenes at one of America's premiere museums. A hands-on, interactive magazine, Verso takes you behind the velvet rope, inside the vaults, and even inside the art using cutting edge technologies. How is technology changing the way you see art? With videos, interviews, games, and interactive storytelling, it's the art world as you've never seen it before—the museum uncrated.
