Tomando una visión amplia de lo que puede hacer un ícono del arte estadounidense, esta sesión presentará una nueva mirada sobre la colección del Whitney y cómo se desarrolló. El arte en el Museo habla de desarrollos sociales, políticos y artísticos que han llegado a definir y, complicar, la idea de lo "estadounidense" dentro de la historia del arte de este país desde el inicio del siglo XX hasta el presente.

Taking an expansive view of what an icon of American art can be, this session will take a new look at the Whitney’s collection and how it developed. The art in the Museum speaks to social, political, and artistic developments that have come to define—and to complicate—the term “American” in American art history from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present.
