Notes:

"Presents an informative and entertaining overview of the Whitney Museum's important and controversial survey of contemporary American art. Artists Ross Bleckner, Peter Halley, Annette Lemieux, Robert Lobe, Nam June Paik, Izhar Patkin, Judy Pfaff, and Richard Prince speak about their work as it is installed in the galleries. The curators comment on changes in the art world during the past decade as reflected in the Whitney Biennials, and art historian Robert Pincus-Witten discusses the artists' concepts within the framework of postmodernism. This oustanding documentary won a Gold Award at the 1988 Houston International Film Festival." - Cover.
