Cars, Culture, and the City
Mar 25, 2010 through Aug 8, 2010

Even though New York, like many major cities, has a low per capita ownership of automobiles, it has surprisingly played an essential role in creating today's car culture, and the car has helped, in turn, to shape modern New York. Cars, Culture, and the City is the first exhibition to explore New York City’s century-long relationship with the car and marks the 100th anniversary of the Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association (GNYADA). The exhibition will feature visionary drawings and models; historic photographs, films, and advertisements; and a wealth of car memorabilia to tell this fascinating, yet untold, story.  

 

Cars, Culture, and the City is sponsored by the Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association (GNYADA) on the occasion of its 100th anniversary
