ArtBridge and AIANY present: Plywood, Concrete, Paint 2!

The Center for Architecture
New York, NY


Back by popular demand is the second installment of panel discussion series, "Plywood, Concrete, Paint!"

The first installment of "PCP" focused on the growing relationship between art and construction; it seems that now more than ever, artists and organizations are turning to the construction site, seeing it for the first time as unexplored territory for the making and exhibition of contemporary Public Art. Among the panelists were ArtBridge Founder, Rodney Durso, Public Artist, Maya Barkai, and Joe Covello, President of  United Hoisting and Scaffolding.  

For this second discussion, we've brought together a new group of experts in the fields of real estate, art, and design to discuss what exactly public art does for public space. How is public art used to turn the city's many "non-spaces" into destinations? What is the relationship of public art to art housed inside the museum?  Beautification is only one of an infinite number of effects art in the public realm can have on public space--what else can it do?

Speakers include:
Laurie Beckelman, Principal of Beckelman+Capolino and former Chair of the Landmarks Commission, Ari Heckman, Principal at HM Ventures; Filip Noterdaeme, Director of the Homeless Museum of Art, and sound artist, Nick Yulman

Moderator: Olympia Kazi, Executive Director of the Van Alen Institute

Note: Photography and videography of the "Plywood, Concrete, Paint!" is prohibited. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
