Whitney Museum of American Art

Museum New York, USA

Founded by the sculptress and billionaire art lover Gertrude Vandelbilt Whitney on 1930, Whitney Museum of American Art holds the greatest american art collection of the XX century.

A grey, massive granite and reinforced concrete building harbors the 5 floors of this museum. This structure was designed by the Hungarian designer Marcel Breuer and opened to the public on 1966. Among the 5 floors, only one keeps an ongoing display, amongst them the masterpieces of Edward Hopper and Kooning, Demuth and Andy Warhol paintings.
