Choreographer Pavel Sustiak, together with Palissimo, broke boundaries addressing the complexity of public and private spaces showing that art can occur when and where you least expect it.
Performances began with dancer Lindsey Dietz Marchant appearing to have missed her ferry and pressing her body to the closed doors in the boarding area at the ferry terminal. A small group of individuals then wandered over to scan the schedule that Lindsey was standing near – while they did, she stood frozen with one foot raised and spread her arms. Performers Gina Bashour and Jeff Kent Jacobs then morphed from civilians to contorted beings at which point most onlookers became confused not knowing whether to move or watch until it became clear a choreographed dance piece was being performed right in front of their eyes. To accompany the choreography, a sound bar was set up to which onlookers could plug in to hear different soundtracks thereby creating individualized unique experiences with the artwork.

The NYCDOT Art Program partnered with the International Studio and Curatorial Program to present Egyptian artist Mohamed Sharkawy’s work “Birds,” a series of six decorative panels along the corrugated metal fence at Vernon Boulevard and Queens Plaza South in Long Island City, Queens. Inspired by Egyptian wall painting, Sharkawy reduces each form into flat silhouettes in order to render recognizable images. The fanciful bird scenes reference the lives of birds that migrate through New York annually. Sharkawy’s birds express freedom and movement along with stillness and meditation.

NYCDOT, The Center for Architecture, and Max Protetch Gallery worked together to bring the 24 Foot Fly’s Eye Dome to LaGuardia Place in conjunction with a Whitney Museum exhibition about R. Buckminster Fuller’s work as an architect, engineer, designer, and inventor. The central placement of the dome on the wide sidewalk invited pedestrians to interact freely with the form stepping in and out of the dome to take in the scale and complexity of the piece.
