Show Notes
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.
