Seen at a preview of the new Whitney Museum: Diane Arbus (b. 1923 NY, d. 1971) “A family on their lawn one Sunday in Westchester” from 1968. The piece is part of the museum-wide exhibit “America is Hard to See” which draws upon the museum’s extensive collection for a show that is meant to, as the NY Times explains, examine “the ideas, beliefs, visions, and passions that have preoccupied and galvanized American artists over the past one hundred and fifteen years” in a show that is further described as “the most ambitious display to date of the Whitney’s collection.” See it and the new Whitney.
