Floor 7

Slow down and spend time with Isamu Noguchi sculptures in our permanent collection.  This special edition of Art + You invites you to experiment with drawing in the galleries to look more closely. Using techniques including contour line and gesture, you will gain insight into your own perception of positive and negative space and explore how to render three-dimensional forms.

Guided by a Whitney Museum Educator, each Art+You session is and welcomes younger adult visitors to reflect and trade thoughts on select artworks on view through close looking and dialogue. Alternating across Whitney’s galleries, each month focuses on a small selection of works for a more intimate, meditative, and expansive experience.

Afterwards, keep the fun going by joining Free Friday Night.
