Major U.S. museums are launching a series of high-profile exhibitions this spring, headlined by a massive Marcel Duchamp retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Other key highlights include the North American debut of Iris van Herpen’s technologically-driven fashion at the Brooklyn Museum and a focused look at Peter Hujar’s photography of the New York underground at the Morgan Library & Museum.
These exhibitions represent a significant moment of institutional recovery and ambition as the American cultural sector moves past pandemic-era restrictions. By blending conceptual art history, cutting-edge fashion, and historical photography, these shows aim to re-engage diverse audiences and signal a robust return to large-scale, scholarly, and multidisciplinary programming.
