Stroll through Sixties Surreal | Exhibition Preview

Oct 14, 2025

Take a virtual stroll through Sixties Surreal with us! Sixties Surreal is an ambitious, scholarly reappraisal of American art from 1958 to 1972, encompassing the work of more than 100 artists. The exhibition takes place on the fifth floor of the Whitney Museum, from September 24, 2025 through January 19, 2026. This revisionist survey looks beyond now canonical movements to focus instead on the era’s most fundamental, if underrecognized, aesthetic current—an efflorescence of psychosexual, fantastical, and revolutionary tendencies, undergirded by the imprint of historical Surrealism and its broad dissemination.
