Pop art and New York share a special relationship. The Guggenheim was particularly important to the evolution of the genre in the city, when a British curator organized the first museum presentation of Pop art in New York in 1963. This summer, the Guggenheim is exploring the Pop art in its collection with a new exhibit, Guggenheim Pop: 1960 to Now, featuring the work of 29 artists who engaged in Pop art, from the past to the present. Guggenheim curator Lauren Hinkson discusses the show and the unique artistic signatures of Pop.

All Of It with Alison Stewart is a show about culture and its consumers.
ALL OF IT is a show about culture and context.
ALL OF IT is a show about culture and the culture.
Our aim is to engage the thinkers, doers, makers, and creators, about the what and why of their work. People make the culture and we hope, need, and want the WNYC community to be a part of our show. As we build a community around ALL OF IT, we know that every guest and listener has an opinion. We won’t always agree, but our varied perspectives and diversity of experience is what makes New York City great.
ALL OF IT will be both companion for and curator of the myriad culture this city has to offer. In the words of Cristina De Rossi, anthropologist at Barnet and Southgate College, London:
"Culture encompasses religion, food, what we wear, how we wear it, our language, marriage, music, what we believe is right or wrong, how we sit at the table, how we greet visitors, how we behave with loved ones, and a million other things."
...In other words, ALL OF IT.
