“This year’s Whitney Biennial may have escaped serious censure in part because there’s no one at the Whitney to kick around anymore. In keeping with its sorry tradition of revolving-door directors, the museum lost its former head, Maxwell Anderson, last September and its affable new one, Adam Weinberg, bears no responsibility for this survey’s selections. No one has yet been churlish enough to pummel the triumvirate of earnest, low-profile young female curators who made this year’s picks.”
