(Drivebycuriosity) - New York is known as a global financial center. But
the megapolis also is a center of arts and offers some of the world´s
best museums. The Whitney Museum Of American Art impresses by her architecture & belongs to the leading art collections of the world.
This week my wife and I visited the museum again where we saw their Biennial 2019. The curators claim that this is "an unmissable event for anyone interested in finding out what’s happening in art today" (whitney). Really?
The show gets a lot attention in the media and attracts a cool crowd.
Above you can some examples what these curators consider as important art. These sculptures are created by Nicole Eisenman & Daniel Lind-Ramos
Are clocks on the wall art works too?
Something green hangs from the ceiling. The return of the Blob?
What the heck?
People could also watch videos there
Some works were more to my taste like Jennifer Parker`s "A Lesson in Longing" (2019, oil on canvas) & Janiva Ellis` "Uh, Oh, Look who got wet" (2019, oil on canvas).
I also liked these 2 paintings by Jeanette Mundt
by Calvin Marcus
and by Walter Price as well.
