The Whitney Museum of American Art, on Madison Avenue, harbours a bold collection of contemporary and 20th century American art. The Whitney's permanent collection now holds about 14,000 pieces, including works by Georgia O'Keeffe, Andy Warhol, Charles Sheeler and Jackson Pollock. Every two years, the museum hosts the Whitney Biennial, an international art show which displays many lesser-known artists new to the American art scene.
