Things Get Real/Surreal at the Whitney Museum

by Awl Sponsors

The Whitney Museum has unearthed some bizarre gems from its collection for Real/Surreal, a new exhibition that focuses on the tension and overlap between realism and surrealism in twentieth century art. Featuring big-name artists like Man Ray, Edward Hopper, Andrew Wyeth, and Joseph Cornell alongside equally remarkable lesser-known artists, Real/Surreal is “like visiting your grandmother’s attic and finding it loaded with forgotten treasures.” (The New York Times.)
