Whitney Museum of American Art’s 2011 Gala
10/05/2011 - By Hudson River Park at Pier 57

Whitney Museum of American Art’s 2011 Gala

The Whitney Museum of American Art’s 2011 Gala, honoring legendary art writer Calvin Tomkins for his lifetime achievements.

Taking place at Hudson River Park at Pier 57, the 2011 Whitney Gala was the first to be held outside of the Whitney Museum. This was also the first Whitney Fall Gala to take place in downtown Manhattan, continuing the Whitney’s celebration of their new downtown building in the Meatpacking District which is currently entering the construction phase.

Raising more than $2.65 million last year, the Gala is the most visible and prominent of the museum’s fundraising efforts, providing the essential funds needed to support the latest achievements of emerging and established artists as well as exhibitions of American masters.

This year’s Gala featured a video installation by artist Marilyn Minter and sponsored by AOL, that has been created especially for the Gala.
