Introduction to...Circle Through New York

Short Doc Video Introducing the Art Project for the Musuem

Artists Lenka Clayton and Jon Rubin discuss their new project, A talking parrot, a high school drama class, a Punjabi TV show, the oldest song in the world, a museum artwork, and a congregation’s call to action circle through New York. The artists have drawn an imaginary circle through Harlem, the South Bronx, Queens, and Manhattan’s Upper East Side and invited six public venues along the circle’s path to participate in a system of social and material exchange. The artists worked with the venues to select aspects of their identities—referenced in the project’s full title—that will rotate among the six locations over a period of six months, from March 1 through August 31, 2017.
