Well worth a visit - Excellent exhibition of modern art - well laid out with lots of space to reflect. Some amazing exhibits, which were very thought provoking. We really enjoyed our visit and all floors were open when we visited.

Bag pack - The rule of no backpacks inside needs to be reevaluated. I have a small bag that happens to have two straps and could be used as a backpack. Knowing the rules I put my bag on the side and went in. Later we had lunch and returned to the shows and I was barred to go in with my bag. I was told to leave it at the coat check. I had no pockets to put my wallet and other belongings. I saw several people with their backpacks, always in front or on the side of the person….

Great and Horrible all in one space - This was my first visit to the new Hudson River location. I had last seen the Whitney back when it was located on the Upper East side near Hunter College. I like the new building and location. Much more character down here. The art itself suffers the same fate as MOMA where so many of the classic works are in cold storage so that stylish statements of the modern age take up the majority of the space. You can limit your time to the top floor unless you have pretentious friends to impress with kindergarten nonsense in the rest of the building.

Skip the Biennial - Worst show I’ve seen in ages. Very disappointing if this is the supposed state of the art of contemporary art. It was a mess.
