2010年惠特尼双年展
Whitney Biennial 2010
2010年惠特尼双年展，策展人弗朗西斯科·伯纳米(Francesco Bonami)和加里·卡里翁·穆拉亚力(Gary Carrion-Murayari)宣布第75届惠特尼双年展开幕。作为特约策展人，芝加哥当代艺术博物馆的前高级策展人伯纳米形容本届惠特尼双年展是 “异常又令人乐观的”。伯纳米解释道：“异常是因为本届双年展较为安静，就像斯蒂芬·金小说的第一章，一切看起来很平常，但读者都知道会有事发生。”
第75届惠特尼双年展的规模有所减小，参展艺术家只有55位，而且主办方并没有设定明确的策展主题。双年展的副策展人加里·卡里翁·穆拉亚力在解释 不设策展主题时说：“我们希望尽可能反映艺术家们在过去两年里创作状况。受经济状况影响，艺术家在材料选择上受到一定限制，而且也不太可能制作规模宏大的 作品。”
2010年惠特尼双年展从25日正式开展，并将持续到5月30日
