“Downstairs this July and August Whitney Live rocks the Lower Gallery and Sculpture Court with upstarts in experimental pop, tropicalia, chill-wave, beach music, garage rock, post-punk, and globe-trotting bass-inflected DJ beats. Whitney Live is free with Museum admission, which is pay-what-you-wish on Fridays from 6-9 pm.”

Shearwater’s Jonathan Meiburg and Wye Oak’s Andy Stack are playing a show at the museum on Friday, June 25th to ring in an exhibit of art by painter Charles Burchfield.

Last year’s summer Whitney shows included Vivian Girls & These are Powers and the Feelies.

The Biennial just closed at the museum – there’s a video tour of it below…
