We’re excited to reopen and welcome audiences back to the Whitney. Before or after you visit—or even if you can’t make it to the Museum in person right now—join us for a series of thirty-minute Zoom talks to get reacquainted with our current exhibitions.
In this talk, teaching fellow Xin Wang will discuss mid-twentieth-century abstraction as well as Pop art, focusing on works from the exhibition The Whitney’s Collection: Selections from 1900 to 1965.
