Abstract

The article examines various issues relating to the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City, focusing on the design of its buildings.

Additional topics discussed include the museum's 1966 building, designed by the architect Marcel Breuer, insights on the 1966 building from the public servant August Heckscher, the architecture of Madison Avenue in New York City and how Pop art impacted architecture in the 1960s.
