The Whitney Museum of American Art just opened in the Meatpacking District, in NYC. The Whitney previously was on the Upper East Side and I hadn’t been there in many years. The new Whitney is spectacular. It’s 8 floors high with amazing views from several terrraces. It’s airy and spacious and the current exhibit of American artists is a lovely collection.
What I noticed was the people walking around are part of the art exhibit. I found a woman with amazing long blond hair and had to snap a pic of her.
This is “Before and After” by Andy Warhol.
This is “Three Flags” by Jasper Johns.
This photo is “Woman with a Camera” by Anne Collier.
This is one of the galleries. The center piece are cigarette butts.
Some other highlights are below.
Here’s my Dad and I on the 8th floor and the view of the Empire State Building.

Jill it looks great. I will definitely have to go one day soon. So glad you had a nice day with your dad.
Thanks, Janet! Definitely pick a gorgeous day and go!
What an amazing space! I love galleries and museums with such an expansive and minimalist style. Love the photo with you dad and also the Andy Warhol 😄
Thanks, dj! The Andy Warhol is my favorite. 🙂
How I would love to go there even for a weekend. Although big cities usually scare the beejeebers out of me! Loved the art!
I hope you can go. NYC is actually very tourist-friendly and not scary. 🙂
Great post, I love when you share your adventures with us!
The artwork looks really interesting, especially liked the Andy Warhol piece and the Coca Cola one, so retro!
Love the photo of you and your Dad, it looks like a beautiful day over there 🙂
Thanks, Adele, it was the most gorgeous day. Dad and I had fun. It’s such a lovely museum!
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful experience. The Whitney Museum of American Art with it’s minimalist approach is a jewel. It looked like a lovely day with your dad.
Thanks, it was so nice I plan to go back soon.
