Artists Among Us

Artists Among Us

by

The Whitney Museum of American Art presents Artists Among Us, a podcast about American art and culture. We tell stories revealing the complexities and contradictions that have shaped life in the United States today.

Minisodes feature brief conversations about artworks and events in and around the Whitney. The series is ongoing.

Season 1: Day’s End considers the American artist David Hammons’s sculpture, Day’s End (2014–21) anchored on the banks of Manhattan’s West Side and stretching into the Hudson River. We follow the evolution of the Manhattan coastline through the history of the Meatpacking District, and celebrate the communities that have shaped the neighborhood where the Whitney now stands. This podcast was produced by Sound Made Public in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art.
