The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City has an exhibition of video games including Snake from 1997 and SimCity 2000 from 1994. Because MOMA is among the most prestigious institutions in the art world, some argue that the museum's choice to exhibit these games demonstrates that video games in general should be considered art. But while the inclusion of Snake suggests that it should be considered a work of art, it is much less clear that all video games should be considered works of art.
