After World War II, New York became the laboratory
for the Western world's avant-garde art movements, a prominent role
it maintained for decades. Generations of New York artists have
left their mark on the development of contemporary art in the
context of influential art movements such as Abstract
Expressionism, Pop Art, Super Realism, Minimalism, Land Art, Body
Art, and Conceptual Art. This show and catalog, published in
association with a major exhibition at the Grimaldi Forum of Monte
Carlo, is the most comprehensive exploration of this topic. New
York, New York encompasses critical research into the fields of
architecture, cinema, photography, music, performance art and
video, conveying the cultural dynamics that have characterized life
in this metropolis since the 1940's. Lisa Dennison and Germano
Celant have selected the artists and works that best depict the
pivotal role played by New York artists, and they have illuminated
the complex cultural environment in which they worked.
