Recently the American Folk Art Museum dramatically transformed the Park Avenue Armory’s historic 55,000-square-foot Wade Thompson Drill Hall with the installation of 650 red and white American quilts, all of which were on loan from the collection of Joanna S. Rose. It represented the largest exhibition of quilts ever to be held in New York City. Some of the best exhibitions I have ever seen have been staged in the Armory there is just something quite spectacular about the scale of the space and to put it simply the hang looks amazing.
