“Unfinished” at Met Breuer
On “Unfinished” at Met Breuer.
Not since the Whitney Museum of American Art moved to its new Renzo Piano building last year has a New York museum event been as eagerly awaited as the Metropolitan Museum’s expansion into the Whitney’s former home, the Marcel Breuer–designed fortress on Madison Avenue and Seventy-fifth Street. That the Met would have an entire architecturally significant building in which to explore its growing commitment to modern and contemporary art, at least during the eight years of the present lease, was catnip to the art community. Rumors circulated about the planned opening exhibition, “Unfinished,” although no one was quite sure what the title meant.
