"American Visionaries presents masterworks from the Museum's unparalleled collection of twentieth- and twenty-first-century American art. Underscoring the Museum's commitment to in-depth collecting across media boundaries, these selections were drawn from the Permanent Collection of nearly 13,000 works and highlight the careers of more than 280 of the 2,450 artists represented in the Museum. Like the collection itself, the artists presented here are richly varied, from early- and mid-twentieth-century masters such as Alexander Calder, Edward Hopper, and Georgia O'Keeffe to postwar icons such as Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, and Andy Warhol to contemporary artists such as Mike Kelley, Jeff Koons, and Cindy Sherman."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Jeg har 2 gange været på Whitneys, og det er et mageløst museum for det 20. århundredes progressive amerikanske kunstnere: Jasper Johns, Franz Kline, Jeff Koons,Robert Motherwell, Catherine Opie, Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol og ikke mindst Mark Rotko + mange flere. ( )
