The Whitney Museum of American Art, often referred to simply as "the Whitney", is an art museum with a focus on 20th- and 21st-century American art re-opening May 1st at 99 Gansevoort Street in New York City's Meatpacking District. The Whitney places a particular emphasis on exhibiting the work of living artists as well as maintaining an extensive permanent collection containing many important pieces from the first half of the last century. The museum's Annual and Biennial exhibitions have long been a venue for emerging and less well-known artists whose work is showcased by the museum.
