Times Square Arts, in partnership with the Polish Cultural Institute New York and Performa, presented a three-part exhibition by the seminal Polish artistic collective Akademia Ruchu in Times Square on Friday, November 8, and Saturday, November 9, 2013. The exhibition included live performance, video, and printed material, the first time an exhibition featuring all three elements was presented in the Crossroads of the World.
The performance series, entitled The Market of Toys, was created specifically for Times Square. It is composed of four distinctive minimalistic single-element actions representative of Akademia Ruchu's 40 years of experience working in the public realm. These austere, participatory interventions will simultaneously contrast and emphasize the vibrant character of Times Square and its multitude of visitors. The performances will be complemented by videos chronicling some of the collective's seminal performances. These 30 second videos will play every 5 minutes on 10 CEMUSA newspaper kiosks located between 34th-48th Streets. A printed exhibition in the form of a newspaper documenting Academia Ruchu's deep history of socially and politically driven public performances will be handed out to visitors.
Akademia Ruchu (The Academy of Movement) has been a political sounding board in Poland since its establishment in 1973 in Warsaw. Operating at the juncture of theater, performances, political actions, and anonymous interventions in the public realm which and with the involvement of spectators.

The first thing we noticed walking out of the airport was extreme heat. And we were told that the hot part of the year is over and it's getting colder now. The mornings were very hazy. In general the city is loud with traffic, and huge developments are everywhere. The best way to get around is a motorcycle. Driving requires some time to adjust. Everyone honks but we didn't notice any road rage… Police are present on the streets, but we didn't notice so many ambulances and no fire trucks at all. The directions are given by landmarks, not street addresses as street layout is literally changing daily with the fast pace of growth.
