comunicato stampa

Pedestrian is a public art project of three site-specific, projected installations that will be on view simultaneously in three locations in New York City, in the galleries at Eyebeam in Chelsea and two outdoor venues at Rockefeller Plaza in Midtown and The Studio Museum in Harlem.

On view from February 13 through March 23, 2002, Pedestrian presents miniature, computer-generated moving people projected directly onto the ground from above, providing a bird's-eye view of pedestrian traffic.
These projected "pedestrians" will interact to form patterns, crowds and streams that evolve unpredictably, almost organically, as if having lives of their own.
In conjunction with the public art project Pedestrian will host a number of public programs.
Educational initiatives include family programs, educational events, a lecture, a panel discussion, and curriculum materials for school children.

Saturday, February 23, 10:30am -12pm
