Adam D. Weinberg

[5] During Weinberg's career he has curated numerous exhibitions on artists such as Edward Hopper, Richard Pousette-Dart, Arshile Gorky, Sol LeWitt, Isamu Noguchi, Alex Katz, Robert Mangold, and Frank Stella.

He has organized numerous public projects with artists such as Christian Boltanski, Mark Dion, Nam June Paik, Laurie Simmons, Lorna Simpson, Jessica Stockholder and Nari Ward.

Weinberg has authored numerous catalogues and essays on artists ranging from Martin Puryear, Richard Artschwager and Jack Whitten to Sol LeWitt, Richard Tuttle, Robert Adams and Ursula von Rydingsvard, lectured widely, and been a grant panelist for federal, state, city, and private foundations as well as international governmental and private organizations.

Major Whitney-organized exhibitions explored the works of dozens of artists—senior (such as Frank Stella, Carmen Herrera, and Lawrence Weiner), mid-career (such as Julie Mehretu, Roni Horn, and Lorna Simpson), and historic (such as Gordon Matta-Clark, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Edward Hopper).

In 2015, the Museum opened its new 220,000-square-foot building designed by Renzo Piano in New York's Meatpacking District, doubling the size of its exhibition space as well as providing state-of-the-art theater, education and conservation facilities.

Among them are John Baldessari, Dawoud Bey, Christian Boltanski, Alex Katz, Jeff Koons, Glenn Ligon, Julie Mehretu, Jason Moran, Elizabeth Murray, Claes Oldenburg, Catherine Opie, James Rosenquist, Martha Rosler, Susan Rothenberg, Ed Ruscha, Frank Stella, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Sarah Sze, Bill Viola, Kara Walker, and Lawrence Weiner.

In 2019 the Whitney faced criticism and protest for including, what was thought to be by many, a racially-insensitive painting of Emmett Till by artist Dana Schutz in its 2017 Biennial.
