"New York in the 1940s" Exhibition
Guggenheim Museum
This event has ended.
With the outbreak of World War II, numerous European artists, including many Surrealists, sought refuge in New York. Here, they exhibited at the Julian Levy Gallery, Peggy Guggenheim’s Art of This Century, the Nierendorf Gallery, and Albert Gallatin’s Museum of Living Art at New York University, as well as the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim’s forerunner, the Museum of Non-Objective Painting, allowing an emerging vanguard of American painters to encounter the European avant-garde.
