Just after noon; still just a few people on the beach and 2 guys in the water. (With an off-shore rain shower- looks like on the other side of Waimea Bay.)
Kipsy (1)(2)(3), was created by artist Serban Ionescu in 2019 for HYxOffTheWall. This site specific installation pays tribute to the majestic Hudson River and gives as an offering three functional artworks in the form of animated creatures. The actual name “Kipsy” spread fear and wonder in an 1899 New York Times article about a sea monster spotted by local new yorkers in the Hudson River. Out of the watery depths of memory and time, Ionescu reawakens this mysterious urban myth, into the Hudson Yards of today. Each of these sculptures carries its own artistic language, color base and function. Questions arise as we are invited to recline on these whimsical works: what really lies under the surface?
HYxOffTheWall, on exhibit at The Shops & Restaurants at Hudson Yards from March 2019 to January 2020, features large-scale tableaus, interactive displays and murals from 13 artists. The exhibit was curated and produced by CultureCorps.
For HYxOffTheWall, Jeanette Hayes reflected the specific locale of her work juxtaposing the contemporary architecture of Hudson Yards with an Albert Bierstadt painting from 1868. This painting is an archetype of the Hudson River School, an artistic movement from the 19th century that reflected on discovery, exploration and settlement along the Hudson River. Hayes sees an alignment of this with the vision of Hudson Yards for a new era of community, culture, and commerce. The artist also incorporates viewer participation, with hidden QR codes embedded into her work. The infinite vastness of possibility that those artists saw in nature, Hayes sees in architecture, contemporary art and technology.

I Was Here, was created by artist Lara Schnitger in 2019 for HYxOffTheWall. The site specific work is comprised of a series of individually stretched tapestries sewn together from various colors of two-sided sequin material. Drawing inspiration from Schnitger’s own messages originally visible across the surface, viewers are welcomed to interact with the wall and make their own marks in the sequin fabric as an immediate and ephemeral form of expression and communication.

Tito Jackson, the older brother of the Michael Jackson (aka the “King of Pop”), performs at the 21st annual African Festival of the Arts in Washington Park, located near Chicago’s Hyde Park. Jackson wore jeans with his brothers’ likeness and signature on one leg and that of his three sons (the band 3T) on the other. Backed by an eight-piece band and four backup singers, he performed mostly blues songs, which he first premiered during the A&E reality TV series The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty. He removed his bowler hat and replaced it with an afro wig during the portion of his set where he treated the ecstatic audience to a medley of earlier Jackson 5 hits (which included “ABC” and “I’ll Be There” and The Jacksons “Heartbreak Hotel” and “Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground).” Jackson did not sing the earlier songs himself.

What to Wear in Candyland was made by artist Will Cotton in 2019 for HYxOffTheWall at Hudson Yards. The vignette depicts three powerful, monumental female, framed by blacks walls, ceiling and flower, engaging the viewer to reveal their active role in the construction of their self-image.

"Spatial effects, sensations of time and suggestions of physical environments exist in my paintings. I
create scenes that live in my imagination, yet are inspired by the naturalism and reality of our world.
"Eclipse" is a recent painting made shortly after the 86% eclipse of the sun on May, 20, 2012."
