Whitney Biennial 2022: Quiet as It’s Kept

April 6 – September 5, 2022

The 2022 Whitney Biennial is designed to reflect the uncertain and disruptive nature of recent years. The pandemic, uprisings for racial justice, a presidential election, and polarizing events both national and international influence the art on display. This art is dynamic, incorporating animation, performance, and spatial shifts in the gallery itself to reflect the turbulent times.
