Episode 1612
Published 5 months ago
Description
Today marks the opening of the Whitney's major exhibition this fall, "Sixties Surreal." The exhibition displays the work of over 100 American artists made during the years 1958-1972, and makes the case that early 20th century Surrealism inspired a new kind of surrealist influence during a turbulent era of American history. Whitney curators Dan Nadel and Laura Phipps talk about the exhibition, on view through January 19.
