Whitney Biennial, New York, USA
The final Whitney Biennial in the museum’s current space before it moves downtown. For this last fling in what has been the Whitney’s home since 1966, three external curators have overseen one floor each to create a snapshot of American art at this particular moment. The result is three varied presentations featuring over 100 American artists.
