Museum Movements: Inspired by the twelve native New York animal clients in Haeg’s installation Animal
Estates 1.0: New York, New York, twelve movement artists wrote Animal Scores for contiguous spaces in the
Whitney. Each week throughout the Biennial, one dancer performs a silent “tour” of the Museum, enacting
all twelve scores.
Sundown Schoolhouse: Following each Animal Score, a Guided Estate Tour, led by a local scientist, historian, artist, writer, or musician, focuses sequentially on each of the animal clients.
Guided Estate Tours begin in the Lobby at approximately 1 pm
Space is limited; all programs are first-come, first-served unless otherwise noted.
