MoMA has just opened a major retrospective of artist Jack Whitten. “Jack Whitten: The Messenger” features more than 175 works spanning the 1960s to the 2010s. Whitten, who died in 2018, was known for his bold abstraction and deep exploration of materiality. MoMA Curator Michelle Kuo and Whitten’s daughter and archive steward Mirsini Amidon discuss the show, on view through August 2.
