Exploring the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York π
The Whitney, also known as The Whitney Museum of American Art, is one of the "Big Four" art museums in New York, alongside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, MoMA, and the Guggenheim. Its stunning modern industrial aesthetic is truly impressive, with a building that features sharp angles and an asymmetrical structure. The extensive use of floor-to-ceiling windows and the high ceilings in the central floors perfectly blend the indoor and outdoor exhibition spaces. The three terraces offer breathtaking urban views that seamlessly become part of the exhibition experience. π πΈ In shortβone word: perfect for photoshoots π·βοΈβοΈβοΈ Student tickets are $18. Address: Gansevoort Street, New York, NY π The gift shop has a limited selection, and the prices are a bit steep. I bought a Whitney ballpoint pen and a paper bag for $3.75 π£ πΈ The Whitney Museum has given me a newfound appreciation for contemporary art. The impactful and boundary-breaking pieces reflect the artists' personal explorations of social issues, dreams, family, and sexuality. These explorations often leave the audience with a lot to ponder. πΏ Right outside the museum is the famous High Line Park and Little Island, which are perfect spots to visit together. πΈ #NewYork π
