Lessons Learned / The Just Above Midtown Project

Lessons Learned is an ongoing project begun by Tony Whitfield in 2017 to record Whitfield's ruminations about his life experiences and the ways in which the lessons of those experiences reflect social interactions and contexts. Originally gathered for presentation at New York's Museum of Modern Art in conjunction with their 2022-23 exhibition, Just Above Midtown: Changing Spaces, the banners included in this exhibition document Lessons Learned by Whitfield up to and through the time he served as Performance Curator at the groundbreaking New York-based arts organization from 1983 to 1986.
